Lost December

By: Richard Paul Evans

Narrated by: John Dossett

From one of America’s most beloved storytellers comes his most spiritual book since The Christmas Box and The Walk series with this modern-day, Christmas-themed retelling of the story of the prodigal son.

It has been said that sometimes the greatest hope in our lives is just a second chance to do what we should have done right in the first place. This is the story of my second chance.

When Luke Crisp graduates from business school, his father, CEO and cofounder of Fortune 500 Crisp’s Copy Centers, is ready to share some good news: he wants to turn the family business over to his son. But Luke has other plans. Taking control of his trust fund, Luke leaves home to pursue a life of reckless indulgence.

But when his funds run out, so do his friends. Humbled, alone, and too ashamed to ask his father for help, Luke secretly takes a lowly job at one of his father’s copy centers. There he falls in love with a struggling single mother and begins to understand the greatest source of personal joy.

Lost December is New York Times bestselling author Richard Paul Evans’s modern-day holiday version of the biblical story of the prodigal son, an “inspiring” (Ventura County Star), “beautiful” (Desert News) tale of redemption, hope, and the true meaning of love.

Love love love

A heart touching story! A feel good, make you cry, and to grateful for everything and everyone in your life

Another beautiful Christmas story!

I loved this tear-jerker story! I stayed up way too late listening to it. I don't know how this author writes in a way that just feels so real and so emotional. I can relate to so many things in this story. The failures, the heartbreak, the coming back from it all and the joy that results. The main character's feelings about his father reminds me of my feelings about my Heavenly Father and His love for me. So grateful for books like this one.

Beautiful story

I highly recommend! It really touched my heart. Sweet story with lots of life’s lessons.
