Little Christmas Spirit (Original)

<strong>Christmas wouldn't be Christmas without a Sheila Roberts story . . . a heartwarming confection that's as sweet as a sugarplum and as deeply moving as snowfall. --Susan Wiggs</strong><br /><br /><strong>The best Christmas gifts--family friendship and second chances--are all waiting to be unwrapped in this sparkling new novel from </strong><em><strong>USA TODAY</strong></em><strong> bestselling author Sheila Roberts.</strong><br /><br />Single mom Lexie Bell hopes to make this first Christmas in their new home special for her six-year-old son Brock. Festive lights and homemade fudge check. Friendly neighbors? Uh no. The reclusive widower next door is more grinchy than nice. But maybe he just needs a reminder of what matters most. At least sharing some holiday cheer with him will distract her from her own lack of romance...<br /><br />Stanley Mann lost his Christmas spirit when he lost his wife and he sees no point in looking for it. Until she shows up in his dreams and informs him it's time to ditch his scroogey attitude. Stanley digs in his heels but she's determined to haunt him until he wakes up and rediscovers the joys of the season. He can start by being a little more neighborly to the single mom next door. In spite of his protests he's soon making snowmen and decorating Christmas trees. How will it all end?<br /><br />Merrily of course. A certain Christmas ghost is going to make sure of that!
