The flames of memory always seem to glow a little brighter during the holidays. Perhaps that's why this time of year is so difficult for airline heiress Ivy Macintosh, as she faces thoughts of yet another festive season alone. Since the plane crash that claimed the lives of her husband and two children eight years ago, she's been submerged in grief.
When eleven-year-old Holly Greenwood knocks on her door, lost and frightened after a forbidden visit to her singing teacher, Ivy's self-imposed exile is shattered. Holly has an extraordinary voice, and wants nothing more than to perform in an upcoming Christmas musical. Holly's father, Daniel, doesn't allow music in their home, refusing to give a good reason why—just as he refuses to talk about Holly's mother. Ivy has no idea how closely she and Daniel are linked by their tragic pasts, yet she's drawn to the warmth she senses beneath his gruff exterior. And as Christmas nears, their shared concern for Holly begins to draw Ivy back into the world again . . . and toward a family who may need her just as much as she needs them . . .

Ivy Macintosh has spent the last eight years grieving for her husband and three-year-old twins, who perished in a plane crash. With the holiday season approaching, she can barely get up in the morning until a little girl with the voice of an angel knocks on her door. Holly Greenwood's mother died in the same accident, and her father also needs a new lease on life. Best-selling Michaels' bittersweet Christmas story offers the promise of a better tomorrow.(Reprinted with permission of Booklist, copyright 2017, American Library Association.)
