This story is a about a widowed teacher who decides to get married on Christmas. She does not tell her children who the groom will be nor does she tell the groom himself. Gabby has been asked by three men to marry them and she lets everybody, even the goom in the dark until the wedding ceremony. Although the author tries to portray Gabby as a giving, thoughtful mother, grandmother, friend, etc. I found her to be just the opposite. She made all the plans, etc. and did not think of the men she strung along or the wants of the groom. I did not care for this book and found the characters and the story to be unrelatable to anybody or situation I could think of. The characters and the action was too contrived and I felt the book had been written just to be a source of income for the author. I would not read it again.
