O yes. Do you have a worm that's chewing inside of you? Is it bitterness or is it self-doubt? Is it jealousy or something you're not even sure of?  Yuletide Redemption by Jill Kemerer deals with loss and the bitterness in life and towards God. And boy, was it a kicker! I almost wanted to jump in there and smack a certain character. I want to knock some sense into said character. Though I understand his/her plight and reason for such bitterness, but you can truly see how bitterness can "rot your bones." Not only such, it can drive away the good things in your life, and hurt those that love you.

Back to the book. Being the 4th book in the series, it really doesn't matter, because you won't get lost at all. This book focuses on our main characters, though other characters from the series does make appearances throughout.  I really enjoyed how the author penned Celeste's story, her struggle as a sudden single parent, and the survivor's guilt that continues to torment her. O, did I say too much?  For a story of this length, the level of life and internal struggles these characters face - heartwrenching is to say the least.



Don't miss this story, just in time to bring some Christmas cheer!  It releases tomorrow!
