The Christmas Keepsake

This heartwarming small-town holiday love story about hope and healing from USA Today bestselling author Annie Rains is perfect for fans of Susan Mallery and Jenny Hale! Sometimes the best gifts aren't under the tree. Everyone has a story to tell. And for Mallory Blue, her grandmother Nan's community theater and annual Christmas play has been a beloved tradition for as long as she can remember. But this year is different.
With Nan losing her memories to dementia, Mallory has taken on more than she can handle-including directing this year's show. Two things are keeping Mallory going: A journal that tells the story behind each handmade ornament on Nan's tree. And Hollis, who volunteers to play Santa to spend time with Mallory and prove he's no longer the rebellious boy she knew growing up. As Mallory reads through Nan's entries, she realizes there's so much she never knew about her grandmother.
And when Mallory has big decisions to make in both her personal and professional life, it's Nan's wise advice and Hollis's steadfast support that will hold the key to this year's holiday magic.
