Hilton Head, a South Carolina retirement heaven - at least it's supposed to be, but for Big Al and Connie Russo, the move from New Jersey to this Southern paradise has been fraught with just a few complications. Especially for their daughter, Grace. Well, that's what she likes to be called. Her family insists on Maria Graziella. Seriously, enough with the Neapolitan. That might have been okay in New Jersey, but now it's just plain silly, and Grace, at 32 is - horror of horrors - still unmarried.

A satisfying tale of honor, chance, and star-crossed love infused with Southern wit, grace, and charm - the story of two old Southern families. The Langleys have more money than the Morgan Stanley Bank. And they think they have more class. The Barrett family made their 19th-century fortune in a less distinguished manner: corner grocery stores and liquor stores.

Her client list is evaporating, their monetary reserves are dwindling, and maybe that house she picked out on Sullivan's Island needs too much work.

Eugenia Ladson’s husband—retired judge Everette Ladson—is engaging in marital misbehavior—she’s certain of it. But to activate the clause in her prenup, she needs proof, and is willing to pay for as many hours of surveillance as it takes. When Eugenia turns up dead, Hadley is in Greenville, South Carolina—three and a half hours away—where she’s followed Everette. Every instinct tells Hadley Everette is responsible for Eugenia’s death, but she is regrettably his alibi.

So when an escaped Jewish boy arrives on Elsie’s doorstep in the dead of night on Christmas Eve, Elsie understands that opening the door would put all she loves in danger.

Number-one New York Times best-selling author Laurie Notaro isn't exactly a domestic goddess - unless that means she fully embraces her genetic hoarding predisposition, sneaks peeks at her husband's daily journal, or has made a list of the people she wants on her Apocalypse Survival team (her husband's not on it). Notaro chronicles her chronic misfortune in the domestic arts, including cooking, cleaning, and putting on Spanx while sweaty (which should technically qualify as an Olympic sport).

The Christmas Pearl is wonderful!
I listen to this book every Christmas. The story and characters are perfect. And Pearl is such a comfort to me as well as Theodora, her thoughts, her memories, her worries, and her Christmas spirit. Highly recommend listening to this book as the reader's accent is on point.

I read this book every year. This year I listened to it. The narrator was superb. Her accent was authentic and reminded me of many ladies in my past who passed long ago. I laughed, cried and wished for more! I’ll listen again every year!

A bit of faith and magic bring family together
A friend insisted I get this book as she said it was her favorite Christmas story. I obliged and thanked her! This begins as a story of Christmases long ago in the south with a family who have a black cook/housekeeper named Pearl. Pearl is no subservient woman though. She is the teller's grandmother's best friend. Pearl rules the roost.
Many years later, as the author is well past 80 she remembers the wonder of her childhood Christmases and wants to bring some of that magic to her fractured family. The beginning of their time together is frought with anger, boredom, and disunity. As they wait for a hired cook to help, named Jewel, the teller realizes that the woman who comes is none other than Pearl. She hopes to "get her wings" by this assignment. The rest of the story is by turns funny, painful and totally heartwarming as Pear uses a bit of magic and her wisdom to heal the wounds of a family grown bitter and jaded. The book is lovely. I found myself nodding as I see others around me who have gone sullen and jaded. I wish for all of them a Pearl to bring out the real issues and also reconciliation and a renewed sense of family and love. This will be a part of many Christmases to come for me.

Magical
This was just the story I needed to generate a little Christmas spirit. It hits all the right notes: Nostalgia, Love, humor, imagination and the eternal hope that the Christmas season evokes without being too sappy. The narrator is delightful, I would swear she was just sitting next to me telling me her life story and the comeuppins her family gets. I think I will listen to this one every year from now on, I have a fondness for Christmas stories and this is my favorite so far.

A Modern day Mary Poppins
This was a most endearing story. I believe it speaks to the heart of today’s grand parents. The story is an illustration of what many of us wish we could accomplish through love. I compare it to the story of Mary Poppins, who appears in the midst of chaos and heartache and magically enables the characters to see life differently. The character, Rose is vividly brought to life by the writer and the narrator nailed the details of her inflections and demeanor. Lovely Christmas story!!
