Catching Christmas

De: Terri Blackstock

Narrado por: Sarah Zimmerman

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.

Catching Christmas

This is the second Christmas I have read this wonderful story. I enjoyed it more this year! From beginning to the ending, I couldn't put it down. Loved grandma and her granddaughter and especially her driver. Narrator was over the top! Merry Christmas everyone!

Excellent book

I liked the fact that the story led the characters to Christ and showed what Agoppi love was all about. It was really funny and very enjoyable. I would share this book with all of my friends

the real meaning of Christmas

Romance and Christmas are often bound in book form,
and the most important aspect, faith is left out. Ms Blackstock makes sure it is not missing nor is it enigmatic.

Short but sweet

I wish this book wer so much longer. the story was so simple but it touch my heart.

Catching Christmas

I enjoyed this story. It hit a bit close to home with an elderly family member needing more assistance and being faced with the pressures of everyday commitments of work and family and trying to fit it all together. It was reminder that we all have choices to make, often difficult and remembering God's timeline is often not ours! While there is a bit of sorrow in the story, there is also much joy in how one person went about preparing for Christmas and how two others came to appreciate her dedication to getting everything "just right" as they come to see the hand of God at work. I loved the conversations that went on in each character's head as the story unfolded. I can relate! I recommend this Christmas story.

Sweet story
