The first sentence of the book sounds like a killer.After that, the story warms up and is all about a young woman who misses her mother and no longer wants to celebrate Christmas. Erin, the young woman, goes out for a half-price cup of coffee and meets a striking young man and what seems like a lost dog. She ends up letting the dog follow her home and then, the dog become hers as she buys dog food and all dog necessities.The young man, Reason, had given Erin a realtor's card, so she signs a contract so he can sell her home.The ups and downs, some very funny, some mystical, all happen as Erin finds herself falling in love with Reason and he, with her. Erin learns that Reason works for something called the Santa Society and that there are many related businesses... all part of a huge, world-wide business.Is there a Santa? Are there elves? Is the Santa Society actually connected to the story of Santa Claus? Will Erin and Reason continue to fall in love?Will the family next door be okay, after the father has lost his job and the family has to go to a soup kitchen to eat?Is there evil or deception? Kidnapping?All things will be revealed by the time you finish reading this book. This truly is a Christmas classic and I could see it made into a movie.If you love Christmas and Christmas stories touched with a gift of the magic of the reason for the season, you'll love this book.
