Publisher's summary

A heartwarming Christmas story about finding what really matters in life.

As a first-year law associate, Sydney Batson knows she will be updating her resume by New Year’s if she loses her current case. So when her grandmother gets inexplicably ill while she’s in court, Sydney arranges for a cab to get her to the clinic.

The last thing cab driver Finn Parrish wants is to be saddled with a wheelchair-bound old lady with dementia. But because Miss Callie reminds him of his own mother, whom he failed miserably in her last days, he can’t say no when she keeps calling him for rides. Once a successful gourmet chef, Finn’s biggest concern now is paying his rent, but half the time Callie doesn’t remember to pay him. And as she starts to feel better, she leads him on wild-goose chases to find a Christmas date for her granddaughter.

When Finn meets Sydney, he’s quite sure she’s never needed help finding a date. Does Miss Callie have an ulterior motive, or is this just a mission driven by delusions? He’s willing to do whatever he can to help fulfill Callie’s Christmas wish. He just never expected to be a vital part of it.

I read it in one gulp and wished there was more. Highly recommended!” (Colleen Coble, USA Today best-selling author of the Hope Beach series and the Lavender Tides series)

Delightful Story!

This was the best audible book! I never would have imagined one of my favorite Christian mystery writers could write such an amazing, funny, and enlightening story. I laughed out loud quite a bit at the antics of Miss Callie. I wish for everyone to have or have had a Miss Callie in their life. May Sydney and Finn have a joy filled life remembering all the times Miss Callie seemded to drive them crazy. They didn’t know what they had till they didn’t have it anymore.
