Good Christmas StoryAlthough I did enjoy this story and I understand it was a short story but it was lacking.  The story line was good but the story needed more substance.  You have a young woman Delaney at the age of twenty-one mourning the loss of her fiancé; has given up on life.  With people who love her trying to bring her back to enjoying life.  You have Cade a young man of twenty-seven who as soon as he sees her enter the ball is smitten. He tries to woo her but she is reluctant at first but later she enjoys a kiss and starts to come back to life although she still loves Roger.  Cade asks for her hand in marriage her father says yes but she refuses.  Heart broken he leaves.  On the last chapter she finally explains about Roger and he understands, they kiss and embrace and it ends until fifteen years later where we find out he courted her for a year and proposed the following Christmas.  It went too fast.
