Gabe and Juliette's marriage is rocky after the
untimely death of their young son, Jeremiah.
Trying to save their marriage, they go to a remote cabin to spend
Christmas and hope to rekindle their love for one another. Juliette, however does not want to celebrate
Christmas or have anything to do with the holiday as Jeremiah had passed away
the day before Christmas the prior year.
Losing all hope in her marriage and missing Jeremiah terribly, two
unlikely characters show up on a cold snowy day and show Juliette that there is
hope in her life without Jeremiah, and even though he is gone from her life, he
will always be in her heart.
So, I admit it.
I totally judge a book by its cover, so when I came across the book Christmas Stray, I could not
resist. I had to read this story. I mean look at that cover. How can anyone resist those cute puppy eyes? I know I couldn't! But what about the story inside that
cover? Did it stack up and meet my high
expectations? Yep. Indeed it did. Matter of fact, this story exceeded my
expectations. This is a heart-warming story
that will tug the strings of even the coldest heart and bring a smile upon your
face throughout. The whole story flowed
so smoothly and was extremely well-written.
I fell in love with Patrick and Puppy and the outcome was wonderful. This was a really fast read but was one that
I wanted to go on forever just because it was so inspiring. Even though it is a holiday romance, it is
one that can be appreciated and enjoyed anytime throughout the year.

Ayala is the author of dramatic fiction crossing genres and boundaries
featuring strong but flawed characters. She writes emotionally challenging
stories and is not afraid of controversial topics. However, she is an optimist
and laces her stories with romance and hope.
