Max Ramsey is spitting mad. His old friend, Harold
Leishman, is in the
hospital dying. Harold's formally adopted daughter, Sarah
Carlton, has
come to give him a last Christmas at home and she is
extremely
determined. Harold and Lorissa Carlton had long been
divorced and she
remarried. Max despises the ex-wife and selfish girls for
all the heartache
they have given Harold and everything they have bled from
him. He
doesn't need this woman from New York sticking her nose in
where it
isn't wanted, given the fact that none of them have been
to see Harold in
years and years.
Because of being persistent in brining Harold home
for his death wish,
keeping her true identity a secret is imperative for now.
Harold's farm in
Waratah Bay on the Northern New South Wales coast is his
pride and joy.
Max, being a loner, finally caves in and suggests they
move Harold to his
original homestead that Max now owns.
The old-fashioned Christmas
soon evolves into family members best left behind for Max
invading his
space. This is more than he bargains for but he concedes
to anything
and anyone if it will bring his friend peace and
happiness.
Sarah seems
to be what makes him happy and even though she is now a
successful
model, she also has an RN degree and is capable of caring
for Harold at
home. With the cat and mouse games between Max and Sarah,
it soon
becomes apparent they each have a definite attraction to
the other.
Max's outlook on being a loner soon changes with family
around and
Sarah. Just who is Sarah and why is she giving Harold his
wonderful
Christmas. If only she was someone else that he could
give his heart to,
because he fears it's already too late.
CHRISTMAS AT WARATAH BAYis a Christmas Around the
World novella and filled with emotion
and love. A giving woman filled with generosity and a
stubborn man who
begins to change his way of thinking will stay in your
mind of a time to
come. A little love changes everything when you find your
destiny. This
is the first I have had the pleasure of reading by Marion
Lennox, but certainly
hope I am able to follow this up with more stories from
her. CHRISTMAS AT WARATAH BAY is truly a
memorable story of love and holiday emotions.
Sarah’s committed to her stellar modelling career in New
York, but there’s an obligation she needs to fulfil.
Harold
was a Grandpa to her when she needed him most. Now all
Harold wants is one last Christmas in his beloved Waratah
Bay Homestead. Sarah’s not that so hot on baking and
Christmas seems a bit… challenging… but she’s prepared to
fly half way round the world to give it a try.
The only problem is, Harold no longer owns Waratah Bay
Homestead. Farming tycoon Max Ramsey owns it now and he
doesn’t like company, he doesn’t like Christmas and most
of
all, he doesn’t like Sarah.
When the two clash, enough sparks ensue to light a
Christmas
tree. How many enemies does it take to cook one Christmas
turkey?
