"This tender love story between two wounded people whom God brings
together for healing is a book readers will enjoy anytime-but
especially at Christmas!" -Francine Rivers, New York Times
bestselling author of Redeeming Love and A Voice in the Wind Amid
war and the fading dream of the Confederacy, a wounded soldier and
a destitute widow discover the true meaning of Christmas-and
sacrificial love. Recently widowed, Aletta Prescott struggles to
hold life together for herself and her six-year-old son. With the
bank threatening to evict them, she discovers an advertisement for
the Women's Relief Society auction and applies for a position-only
to discover it's been filled. Then a chance meeting with a wounded
soldier offers another opportunity-and friendship. But can Aletta
trust this man? Captain Jake Winston, a revered Confederate
sharpshooter, suffered a head wound at the Battle of Chickamauga.
When doctors deliver their diagnosis, Jake fears losing not only
his greatest skill but his very identity. As he heals, Jake is
ordered to assist with a local Women's Relief Society auction. He
respectfully objects. Kowtowing to a bunch of "crinolines" isn't
his idea of soldiering. But orders are orders, and he soon
discovers this group of ladies-one, in particular-is far more than
he bargained for. Set against the backdrop and history of the
Carnton Plantation in Franklin, Tennessee, Christmas at Carnton is
a story of hope renewed and faith restored at Christmas.
