For a mother and her daughters, Christmas time might just bring them hope for the future . . .
As a young girl, Carmen Appleton loved the festivities, but when her father left home that fateful Christmas Eve, all that was left in his place were painful memories.

But her daughters are all hiding secrets—secrets they dread their mother will discover...
Will this year be another Christmas ruined—or will the Appletons finally receive the best gift possible?
