About this audiobook
Inspired by the Jewel Series and Virtues and Valor series
Faith Green spends her career as a pilot honoring her grandmother's heroic efforts during World War II. When she's invited to participate in a Christmas time air show in the Florida Keys, she thinks it will be exciting to fly somewhere warm and sunny instead of her cold and wintery London home. But on her first day, she encounters a lifeless body washed up onto the beach.
TJ Viscolli is the eldest child and only son of a wealthy and powerful corporate mogul but instead of modern business his interests lie in history. Months away from a Ph.D., he has an accident windsurfing at his Key West home. When he is resuscitated by a beautiful women, at first he thinks that a Christmas angel has come to save him.
The couple share the common bond of a love of history and romance blossoms. But an accident during the Christmas Eve air show threatens their hope of a life spent together. Will God provide a Christmas miracle, or will the future look cold and dark like a winter night?

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Title: Christmas DiamondAuthor: Hallee BridgemanReviewed By: Arlena DeanRating: 5Genre: Holiday/Christmas, RomanceSeries: The Jewel Review:"Christmas Diamond" by Hallee Bridgeman was one of this author's Jewel Trilogy series. This was a quick read that was truly amazing and wonderful Christmas read with a 'blend of suspense and romance.' Be prepared for a bit of history and seeing another generation from the series in this short novella.. I really like the portrayal of this business world presenting such good Christian people. From the story we find "TJ Viscolli is from a wealthy Italian family, Faith Green is a pilot for vintage aircraft, her grandmother flew with the original female pilots in the war." With TJ studies of history being his specialty it wasn't a big surprise that he was happy to find the granddaughter who was one of the original pilots in his father's hotel here in Key West, Florida. So, it wasn't a big surprise how these two would hook up. As a matter of fact Faith had saved TJ's life. What had happen? Now, I don't want to give to much away so it is here that I will say you must pick up "Christmas Diamond" to see how this author will present it all to the reader. The characters are all very well developed and likable only helping make this such a wonderful awesome read.
