Keeping Christmas

by Marisa Carroll

Published 1 December 1992

When Katie "Smith" and her baby boy, Kyle, appear at the Owens family home one night during a snowstorm just weeks before Christmas, it seems a cruel twist of fate. Katie looks exactly like Jacob Owens's dead wife-and Kyle could be his son!

At first Jacob wants nothing to do with the mysterious woman. But before long, Katie accomplishes what no one had thought possible-she breaks through Jacob's grief, giving him back his joy for life.

But how long will she stay? Katie is obviously running away from someone, though she won't say who. Whatever happens, Jacob vows to keep her and Kyle safe with him-at least until Christmas.

Did Faith Carson steal his sister's baby?

Hugh Damon is convinced that Faith's daughter is actually his sister Beth's missing baby. Just after Beth gave birth she was in a terrible car accident that caused her to lose her memory. Her newborn infant was never found.

Faith, widowed just before the birth, has told everyone she delivered her daughter at home during a devastating storm. Since she was alone, there's no one to confirm–or deny–her story. But there are too many coincidences to allow Hugh to believe her–as much as he finds himself wanting to.

He has to admit that Faith is a great mother and that his teenage sister is in no shape to care for a child, but he still wants to know the truth. It's the only thing that might save his sister's sanity….

Cottonwood Lake was so calm, it looked like glass

So why did Nate feel as if he was at the center of an out-of-control storm? Sarah. Here on his doorstep. The last person he'd ever expected to see was his ex-wife-with a child, no less. And then to hear her say those four incredible words, "Will you marry me?"

But Sarah has to have a life-threatening operation and there's no one to care for little Matty but her. And that's why Nate grudgingly agrees to go along with her plan. Against his better judgment.

After all, what happens if Sarah survives?
