review 1: SUMMARY: In this joyous and whimsical holiday novel, Debbie Macomber rings in the season with the return of Shirley, Goodness, and Mercy, delivering laughs, love, and a charming dose of angelic intervention.Shirley, Goodness, and Mercy know that an angel’s work is never done, especially during a time as wondrous as New Year’s Eve. With an apprentice angel, Will, under their wings, they descend upon Times Square in New York City eager to join in the festivities. And when Will spies two lonely strangers in the crowd, he decides midnight is the perfect time to lend a heavenly helping hand. Lucie Farrara and Aren Fairchild meet after bumping into each other—seemingly by accident—in Times Square on New Year’s Eve. They immediately hit it off and find they have a... more lot in common: Lucie is a burgeoning chef and Aren is a respected food critic. But just as quickly as they’re brought together, another twist of fate tears them apart, leaving Lucie and Aren with no way to reconnect.A year later, Lucie is the chef of an acclaimed new restaurant and Aren is a successful columnist for a major New York newspaper. For all the time that’s passed, the two have not forgotten their one serendipitous evening—and neither have Shirley, Goodness, Mercy, and Will. To reunite the young couple, the angels cook up a brilliant plan: mix true love, a second chance, and a generous sprinkle of mischief to create an unforgettable Christmas miracle.REVIEW: This rollicking blend of comedy, hope and happenstance along with a touch of heavenly magic is a quick, delightful read. I love Macomber's angel trio along with apprentice angel Will, and they always seem to manage to get Gabriel's projects right even in the midst of doing it all wrong. A lighthearted, easy-to-read romance that will definitely put you in the Christmas spirit. As always, Macomber's books are tenderhearted and heartwarming.
review 2: Shirley, Goodness and Mercy are angels who are assigned with the task of guiding and training an apprentice angel named Will. Unfortunately they decide to go to Earth and usher the meeting of Aren and Lucie before God's timing. As a result things escalate in the wrong direction and the four angels must make amends and set things right. I *loved* reading this book. If you want to read a heartwarming Christmas story about angels helping humans then pick up this book. There are times when I want to read serious literary books but today wasn't one of those days. Today I wanted to read a light, heartwarming Christmas story and this book satisfied that need. less
