Buchanan<br /><br />&quot;This is a very sweet story about personal growth and priorities. Very well written and good character development.

Caraway&apos;s vividly descriptive story reveals a bright young Chicago architect desperately in need of an emotional infusion. Thanks to a cancelled flight, a winter blizzard, and a loving and unconventional family out in the middle of nowhere, Kate receives the perfect Christmas gift -- a fresh perspective on life.&quot; - Marcia L. Miller
