Β Β I really loved catching up with these angels. It wasΒ like Β being with old friends. ANGELS AT THE TABLE was filled with love and always the laughter you expect when reading this series. I read this book on Christmas afternoon and I was filled with a very sweet easy feeling after reading it. As always, Debbie Macomber never disappoints me when I want to read a feel good, clean, loving story.
In this joyous and whimsical holiday novel, Debbie Macomber
rings in the season with the return of Shirley, Goodness,
and Mercy, delivering laughs, love, and a charming dose of
angelic intervention.
Shirley, Goodness, and Mercy know that an angelβs work is
never done, especially during a time as wondrous as New
Yearβs Eve. With an apprentice angel, Will, under their
wings, they descend upon Times Square in New York City eager
to join in the festivities. And when Will spies two lonely
strangers in the crowd, he decides midnight is the perfect
time to lend a heavenly helping hand.
Lucie Farrara and Aren Fairchild meet after bumping into
each otherβseemingly by accidentβin Times Square on New
Yearβs Eve. They immediately hit it off and find they have a
lot in common: Lucie is a burgeoning chef and Aren is a
respected food critic. But just as quickly as theyβre
brought together, another twist of fate tears them apart,
leaving Lucie and Aren with no way to reconnect.
A year later, Lucie is the chef of an acclaimed new
restaurant and Aren is a successful columnist for a major
New York newspaper. For all the time thatβs passed, the two
have not forgotten their one serendipitous eveningβand
neither have Shirley, Goodness, Mercy, and Will. To reunite
the young couple, the angels cook up a brilliant plan: mix
true love, a second chance, and a generous sprinkle of
mischief to create an unforgettable Christmas miracle.
