A Wreath of Warmth on a Cold Winter Day


Liz Curtis Higgs will sweep you away to a wonderful Victorian Scottish town with delightful characters in A Wreath of Snow. The story intertwines the lives of two main characters, Margaret (Meg) Campbell and Gordon Shaw. Their lives come in contact one blustering snowy evening when the train that they are both using to run from the pains of their pasts is suddenly snowbound. What they soon discover though is that their lives intertwined long before that time though.  A Wreath of Snow is a heartwarming story of hurts being healed, forgiveness being given, and love being found. Read the fist chapter here.

I began reading this book on a very cold winter weekend, and finished it in the same weekend. This is the first book in a while that I have found that I didn’t want to put down. It was the perfect story to read to warm me from the chilliness outside. This would be the perfect book to curl up by a fire with. It may be written as a Christmas story, but really it would be a great read anytime of the year.

Liz Curtis Higgs is such a versatile writer. She covers a broad spectrum of genres. When reading her works you can tell that she not only loves what she does, but she put a lot of thought and a lot of heart into her writing. This book is just another example of that.

I received this book for free from WaterBrook Multnomah Publishing Group for this review.
