    Review & Giveaway of Until Christmas by TK Chapin!

    December 20, 2018 in my point of view

    Reprinted with author’s permission:

    Can a chance meeting lead to true love? Or does love not always find a way?

    With the holidays quickly approaching and not enough money to even stay caught up on bills, Amanda takes a second job at Northtown Mall in the heart of Spokane, Washington. What was originally thought of as just an extra paycheck turns out to be much more when she meets a man who might just be an answer to her prayers.
    Nate’s heart has grown weary of never seeing his daughter, Sydney, since he moved away after his divorce over two years ago. Taking an extended trip to spend quality time with his daughter, he hopes to inspire her to return to church and start taking the right steps in her life. What was only meant to be a trip to see his daughter turns into much more after one fateful night at the mall.
    “Until Christmas” is a story of two hearts molded and shaped by the Master Potter in the most unlikely of places and blessed by the greatest love of all. Join Amanda and Nate as they navigate God’s will in their lives.

    my point of view:

    The Potter’s House series has become a favorite of mine, and I am sorry to say I have never read a book by this author prior to this one! I was very excited to get this review copy of this story! I have heard many good things about TK Chapin, and I was not disappointed in the least!

    Nate and Amanda meet at a very strange time in each of their lives. While Amanda is having financial issues and trying to “a big girl” about it, Nate is dealing with being so far from his daughter and her daily life. Amanda ends up taking a second job, and Nate is getting more and more frustrated with his employment. When Nate ‘forgets’ his daughter’s birthday gift, he is forced to go shopping at the last minute and enlists Amanda’s help in selecting presents. I said ‘forgets’ in quotes, because to me, this is just such a God thing!

    Even though they each have their own struggles they are working through, both of them rely heavily on their faith in God to see them through the good and the hard! This was a great thing to see in a novel today, so many times one of the main characters may not be a believer, or is having an issue with trusting God. This story definitely has both the hero and heroine depending deeply on their relationship with Jesus and stepping out in faith in several ways!

    I am so grateful for having had the opportunity to read this lovely story, and I look forward to reading more of TK Chapin!

      Hi! I like to do my Christmas shopping early, if possible. I even make original gifts as I have enough time:) crocheted afghan, scarf, artwork, etc. Thanks so much for the opportunity to enter a giveaway! Although CF Romantic Suspense is my favorite, I would love to win a print book of any other available genre:) Merry Christmas!

      We don’t shop. Everyone in our family needs money so that’s what we give! We don’t like to shop so it’s a win/win for everyone.

        Oh, that’s so thoughtful too though – you are all concerned with each other’s needs, that is a blessing in itself!

      lol.. I am nuts and love to shop all year round for presents. If I find something great… I HAVE to get it

      • AvatarPaula Marie says

        I love that, Jackie! I am the same way, but then I have a hard time holding on to it for the occasion, wanting to give the gift right away!!

      I tend to wait to buy presents. The main reason I do this is because I typically only buy for children and children’s interests, likes, & dislikes change so much from day to day. I would hate to buy something that they no longer like when that money could have gone towards something they REALLY like. But for the adults I tend to bake cookies, make candies, and make homemade marshmallows with hot chocolate….that has to be done closer to Christmas so it will all be fresh.

      I like to do my shopping early — but it doesn’t often happen that way! So today I was in the shops struggling along with all the other not-quite-last-minute but certainly not early!!

      • AvatarPaula Marie says

        December 21, 2018 at 6:33 am

        Oh no! I am sorry you are in that mad dash out there! Praying you find everything you need quickly so you can enjoy the next few days!!

      Totally love completing my Christmas shopping early. That way there is more time to find the perfect gifts. Plus, it’s much easier on the budget to buy things a little at a time.

        All great reasons, Ellen! Thank you for sharing with us!

      I would love to do my shopping early; however, it never happens 🙂 with Christmas play preparations and Christmas presents for church…
      Merry Christmas everyone and blessings in the New Year!
