Miss Callie called again, Finn couldn’t take it. He had already taken her to visit so many “perspective” men and pick out hand towels. Now it’s another call through cab company and off he goes. He wishes he could be using his training in French cuisine to make his life brighter not driving a cab, but this isn’t a normal customer and she has so far paid for each trip and her granddaughter Sydney isn’t too terrible to deal with when he and Miss Callie get into some mischief.

Sydney is busting her tail to try and keep her job, her faith, and her grandmother alive during the holidays. She is facing being fired over a ridiculous case and yes the case may make your blood boil. Sydney is harboring some guilt of not being there for Callie. As a mother and daughter myself I could see and feel her emotions on this and it was heartbreaking, I wanted to tell Sydney, she was doing enough and was giving what she could.

Finn may not be family at the start but Miss Callie had a way of making him part of the family in the end. He is part of the humor and chuckles in the majority of this book and his compassion for this dear old lady is something that will hit you deep in your soul.

Miss Callie, I don’t know how to describe you without crying and laughing at the same time. Maybe, that right there is the best description? She creates a variety of emotions in the reader through this short tale and by the end, the reader feels part of Miss Callie in their heart.

This book was everything that Christmas is about, Jesus, family, love, joy, tears, and learning to be enough. I couldn’t put this book down when I received it and the entire story played out in my mind long after the end. It is touching and glorious to read this book, I would recommend it to every reader and their cat.
