Author: Terri Blackstock
Genre: Christian Fiction, Romance, Christmas
Release Date: October 9, 2018
This Year, Christmas Comes Just in Time As a first-year law associate, Sydney Batson knows she will be updating her resume by New Year’s if she loses her current court 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 making 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 that 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.

My Review:
"Catching Christmas"by Terri Blackstock is a book that I cried while reading it! It was a great story but it deals with Christmas and a grandmother having dementia and cancer. I really hope I am not giving a spoiler alert here but both Sydney and Finn mothers have died in the past.
This is a story about a grandmother who wants to make her last Christmas with her granddaughter the best one she has ever had. Even though this book is centered on Christmas, I believe it can be read anytime. It is a story of love and forgiveness. Both Finn and Sydney learn to forgive themselves.
I recommend this book to all readers who like stories that pulls at your heartstrings and to anyone that like Christmas stories but I recommend having tissues handy.
"Catching Christmas" by Terri Blackstock would make a great Hallmark Christmas movie.
I was given a complimentary copy by the author and Celebrate Lit. These opinions are my own.
