In her time, Comtesse Amara de la Cortese was an unfeeling ruler with a heart of
stone. And so, one fateful Christmas, Saint Nicholas turned the heartless ruler
into a statue of stone, destined to wake from her prison every fifty years to
try and redeem herself by proving she now understands the meaning of love. She
has only ten chances and so far has failed the first nine.
When she wakes for the tenth and final time to find herself in the care of
single father Nick and his sweet young daughter Sami, she knows something has
changed. Perhaps Sami is the key to the answer, maybe this innocent child can
teach her what all who have come before have failed to show her.
MIRACLE AT MIDNIGHT is the first book I have yet read by Stacia
Wolf, but will certainly not be my last. This powerful story grabbed me from
page one, and had me turning the pages just as quickly as I could read them,
stopping only to wipe the tears from my eyes at times. This story will evoke so
many emotions from you that by the time you have finished reading, your eyes
will be watery, your heart will be full, and you will feel all warm and fuzzy
inside.
This is a story not just of romance, but of redemption and sacrifice. Watching
as Amara finally decides to ignore her quest and simply enjoy her last moments
of life and the people she has found to spend them with makes one think about
how we live our own lives each day, taking for granted the people we love and
the time we have. It was truly inspiring to watch Amara’s evolution from a
cruel sovereign to a woman who would do anything, give up anything for the
people she has grown to care for.
MIRACLE AT MIDNIGHT has found a permanent home on my bookshelf.
This is the perfect inspirational story to read again and again when one needs
to be reminded of what is really important in life.
