NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • For readers of Richard Paul Evans and Greg Kincaid comes The 13th Gift, a heartwarming Christmas story about how a random act of kindness transformed one of the bleakest moments in a family's history into a time of strength and love.
After the unexpected death of her husband, Joanne Huist Smith had no idea how she would keep herself together and be strong for her three children--especially with the holiday season approaching. But 12 days before Christmas, presents begin appearing on her doorstep with notes from their "True Friends." As the Smiths came together to solve the mystery of who the gifts were from, they began to thaw out from their grief and come together again as a family. This true story about the power of random acts of kindness will warm the heart, a beautiful reminder of the miracles of Christmas and the gift of family during the holiday season.

Hopeful beyond
My children lost their father last year. I honestly did not know how we would get through. I started this book with no hope of finishing with all my emotions and worries. Just reading this supported my healing to hope and I was pleasantly surprised we all make a huge difference when we care beyond and love with no boundaries.
Joy to read even in summer.
This story is uplifting and joyful anytime of the year. I couldn’t stop reading it. It was a pleasure to read through this book and it teaches you about the human spirit and sharing. Loved it.
