Angels at Christmas Book Review

I had this book on my shelf for a long time and it finally came to the top of the pile.  I got this as a Christmas gift a few years ago and I hadn't read it (but I think that I read it from the library before).  Angels at Christmas: An Anthology (Mira Romance) by Debbie Macomber was the next in my pile so I got to have a little more Christmas reading.

Every Christmas, three lovable angels visit Earth. Once a year, Shirley, Goodness and Mercy are allowed to intervene (or, more accurately, interfere!) in human affairs. Despite their frequent misadventures and the chaos they often cause, things always seem to turn out right….

This Christmas, join Those Christmas Angels as they respond to Anne Fletcher's prayer request. She wants her son, Roy, to meet a special woman—and the angels contrive to throw Julie Wilcott in his path (literally!).  Watch as the heaven-sent messengers reunite a divorced couple, bring peace of mind to an elderly man and grant a little boy's fondest wish. Because there's always joy Where Angels Go.  Shirley, Goodness and Mercy offer you laughter and Christmas cheer in these two heartwarming stories!

I thought this was a cute winter read to see the funny angels Shirley, Goodness, and Mercy do when sent down to earth.  There are different missions for each angel and they all help each other provide support so that they can complete all the missions.  The first is for Roy to meet a special women so they find Julie who has enough spunk to keep him interested.  There is also a boy who's greatest wish is to have a dog but his family can't afford it.  The angels help find him a dog but you have to pick up the book to find out how he gets to keep this dog who is sent to the pound.  There is a heart wrenching story of an elderly couple where the wife is having issues with memory but the husband is dealing with health issues.  All of these missions where the angels have been sent need to be resolved by Christmas so the angels have to work hard.  Pick up the book to find out all the trouble these angels get into with their missions.
