When newly divorced Ivy Perkins buys an old farmhouse sight unseen, she is definitely looking for a change in her life. The Four Roses, as the farmhouse is called, is a labor of love - but Ivy didn't bargain on just how much labor. The previous family left so much furniture and so much junk that it's a full-time job sorting through all of it. At the top of a closet, Ivy finds an old Santa suit - beautifully made and decades old. In the pocket of a suit she finds a note written in a childish hand.

Publisher's summary
“Sweet, romantic, and suspenseful, Manchester Christmas is an unexpected gift.” (Richard Paul Evans, number one New York Times best-selling author of The Christmas Box)
A young writer is drawn to a small New England town in search of meaning for her life. Soon, she encounters kindness, romance, and is pulled into a mystery centered on an old, abandoned church and the death of a special girl. Are the images that only she can see in the church's stained-glass windows a warning, or is someone trying to reach her, to help heal this broken community?
Manchester Christmas illustrates how God often uses the most unlikely among us to spread grace and healing in a wounded world. Full of love, hope, and forgiveness, this debut novel from an Emmy-winning writer will touch your heart and have you longing for Christmas in Manchester.

There was trouble in Haven, Arizona, and Ranger Sam O'Ballivan was determined to sort it all out. He arrived posing as the new schoolteacher, and his first order of business was to bring the rough ranchers' children under control. To that end, he called on Maddie Chancelor, the local postmistress, whose younger brother was in firm need of discipline. Sam wasn't sure what to expect - but it was definitely not this graceful woman whose prim, proper stance was so at odds with the fire in her eyes.

It's been said that all great literature boils down to one of two stories—a man takes a journey, or a stranger comes to town. While mystery writers have been successfully using both approaches for generations, there's something undeniably alluring in the nature of a stranger: the uninvited guest, the unacquainted neighbor, the fish out of water. In the newest collection of stories by the Mystery Writers of America, each author weaves a fresh tale surrounding the eerie feeling that comes when a stranger enters our midst, featuring stories by prolific mystery writers.

Dr. Emilie Getz and Jonas Fielding are as different as two people - of the same age, with the same faith, living in the same small Pennsylvania town - could possibly be. She's a first-class neatnik; he's a world-class slob. She's into saving historical relics; he's into saving souls. But perhaps opposites do attract. For when this historian and this land developer meet, sparks fly. And despite the rather inauspicious beginning to their relationship, neither one will escape unchanged - or unsmitten!

Lovely Christmas story
A wonderful and heart warming holiday story. As a native of the area, it painted a great picture of Manchester and surrounding areas.
The accent of some of the characters was more Cape Cod than the Green Mountain area. And a few mispronounced local town names.
Overall very enjoyable and fun to listen to.
Can’t wait for the sequel.

A sweet story
I listen to this audiobook because I run a Christian fiction book club, but it wasn't really Christian fiction. it just had some Christian elements. the story was a nice, simple, heartwarming story, but not the most riveting book I've ever read. at first I didn't like that the main character had a different voice than the main reader, but then I got used to it.

Picture doesn't do it justice!
When life gets tough, read some John Gray! The book was exactly the right balm I needed. I didn't need a crazy convoluted plot, I needed kindness, compassion and love. John Gray delivered!

If you enjoy Hallmark Christmas movies...
If you enjoy Hallmark Christmas movies, this book is for you! It was a great listen for the days leading up to Christmas! I listened while decorating, wrapping, and baking. It is the perfect feel-good story, with a bit of mystery thrown in. Great story-telling anyone familiar with John Gray’s writing would expect. I can’t wait for the sequel!

Delightful!
I can't tell you how much I loved this book. My words cannot describe it properly. The story itself was bright and cheerful despite the tragedies in the plot. I am local to the area in which it took place and know of all the towns and villages described in the book. The reference to Erastus Corning made me chuckle. It was a nice read, a fun read and who knew our wonderful TV personality had this much talent. :) Thank you, John Gray, for Manchester Christmas. I am looking forward to listening to Chasing Manhattan next and am sure it will not disappoint me.
