Christmas Wishes

A historical romance novella from USA Today Bestselling author Judith Stacy.
Pennsylvania farm girl Abbie Doyle arrives in Southern California shocked to learn that the bookkeeping job she expected to have is no longer available. Abbie is forced to accept the position of personal secretary to Mrs. Merchant, the city’s grand dame of society. Abbie has no training for the job, and to make matters worse, she’s expected to plan the demanding Mrs. Merchant’s annual Christmas ball, the city’s premiere social event.
With her job hanging in the balance, Abbie turns to Jack Graham, the handsome owner of a construction company, to handle the renovations to Mrs. Merchant’s home. Jack refuses. He won’t work for the difficult woman. All Jack cares about at the moment is his young daughter. He’s desperate to know what she wants for Christmas.
To convince him to take on the project—and save her job—Abbie offers him a deal he can’t refuse. If Jack will do the renovation, she will find out what the child wants.
Abbie and Jack soon realize the little girl isn’t the only one with a secret wish. But on Christmas morning, will those wishes come true?
