Review | A Christmas Homecoming

My Review:  A short Christmas novella about grace and redemption.  Jody left home seven years earlier and now she finds herself in a position that causes her to re-think her decision to leave.  However dealing with all the hurt feelings and issues is just nearly more than Sonia can take, but only God's grace will see her through this hard but wonderful time of reunion.  I enjoyed this book, it definitely needs a tissue warning and alert at the beginning of the book.  I cried.  A quick read that all will enjoy.  Available in e-book form.

About A Christmas Homecoming
Seven Christmases have passed since Sonia Pettit last heard from her daughter Jody. Since Jody's departure, Sonia's world has been turned upside down. Her husband has died of a broken heart, and her son, bitter over his sister's destructive actions, has become rebellious.
Her greatest desire is to have her family together at Christmas, but after what Jody has put them all through, can Sonia truly forgive her daughter?
Jody Pettit O'Dair ran away to experience a life of adventure and excitement, but since her departure, her world has been turned upside down. She's been abandoned by the man she met and married, lost her job, and is unable to care for her two children. With nowhere else to turn, this prodigal daughter begins the long journey home and prays she will be welcomed after walking away so long ago.
Will Jody find forgiveness in the arms of her family as easily as she received it from God?
