In this wondrous new holiday book in Joan Medlicott'sUSA Today bestselling series, the Christmas season brings a host of surprises — not all of them welcome — to the lovely ladies of Covington and their small North Carolina mountain town.The new pastor at the Cove Road Church in Covington discovers that a former pastor from forty years ago was never ordained as a minister, and was therefore not qualified to marry anyone — which means that five longstanding marriages are invalid! With their marriages thrown into crisis, it's decided that the couples absolutely must remarry on Christmas Eve. But with the church desperately in need of repairs and lacking the funds to fix the rotting floorboards and the outdated heating system, how can they ever get it ready in time?
