  <default_description>Mother-to-be Mary Jo Wyse arrives in Cedar Cove on Christmas Eve, searching for her baby's father. David Rhodes had said he'd be in town. But he isn't. Which leaves Mary Jo stranded, pregnant and alone. And there's no room at the local inn.&amp;#133;&lt;P&gt;So Grace Harding brings Mary Jo home to her nearby ranch. She and her husband, Cliff, have a houseful of guests, but they offer her a room over their stable (currently sheltering the animals&amp;#151;including a donkey and a camel&amp;#151;for Cedar Cove's Nativity pageant!).&lt;P&gt;When Mary Jo goes into labor that night, a young man named Mack McAfee, a paramedic, comes to her rescue, just as her brothers&amp;#151;the three Wyse men&amp;#151;show up in town. The people of Cedar Cove join them in celebrating the birth of baby Noel. But no one has more to celebrate than Mack. Because this Christmas brings him faith, hope and love&amp;#133;</default_description>

    <body><![CDATA[I'll admit it - I love Debbie Macomber's Christmas fiction, but I haven't really branched out much from there, other than her Blossom Street books.<br/><br/>This new holiday novel did not disappoint me, and even though it is predictable, it still held my interest right down to the last page.

    <body><![CDATA[The book was the typical Cedar Cove &quot;fluff&quot;, though it seemed a bit weaker than the other books. I found all the references to the &quot;Christmas Story&quot; fun and clever and I enjoy these books for a quick, easy, simple and enjoyable read. It was just right for the holiday season. <br/>...]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[Apparently this is maybe the tenth in a series which I had never heard of. Didn't matter. This was a nice little trite trifle which was exactly what I was in the mood for.<br/>As a sidenote, I've since picked up a few earlier books in the series and they're more 'romance' than this book was.]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[This was an okay book about a single pregnant young woman.  She travels to Cedar Cove on Christmas eve in search of the father of her child.  She does not find him but finds a loving community.  Her child being born on Christmas eve in a barn was too contrived for me.  ]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[One of my favorite holiday books!  I love the fact the it takes me to Cedar Cove once again with characters I enjoy so much.  It makes you think about the reason for the season and the importance of family and the folks you consider family even if they can't claim it by blood.]]></body>
