A Bundle Of Miracles by Amy Frazier released on Sep 22, 2000 is available now for purchase. This description may be from another edition of this product.
Abbie Latham tries to only live in today, negating the power of the past and of the future. Such a philosophy seems the only way to live with the choices made eight years ago, when she left the man she loved. When she lands the job of librarian in her home town of Point Narrows, Abbie returns knowing she'll have to find closure for the way she left Ben. But when she moves into the Victorian house dripping gingerbread trim, she couldn't help remembering the way she and Ben had discussed trimming back those same bushes. Ben Chase was only twenty-two and about to graduate college when Abbie left him the dear John letter, saying she needed to find herself. He'd suspected that she was pregnant when she and her well-to-do parents suddenly sold their house, pulled up stakes and disappeared. Soon town rumors surfaced that Abbie was seriously ill. Although Ben tried to find Abbie, he quickly found her family's powerful influence prevented location. When Ben hears Abbie's back in town, he vows to avoid her; nevertheless, he found himself turning the police cruiser down the street to the Victorian house on Leeward Road. Further, he can't deny the truth in her eyes when she admits she left town not because she was pregnant, but because she was ill. It wasn't the answer he expected.Ben expected to keep Abbie at a distance, despite her return. But when she discovers a baby heavily swaddled and left on the steps of the library, Abbie must join forces with Ben to care for the infant. Despite his resolution to maintain distance, Ben finds it difficult to hold his feelings in check regarding both Abbie and the foundling. As he rediscovers Abbie's tenderness, he rediscovers his own gentle nature and desire for love. Yet there are many obstacles to be faced, both past and present, if they are to share a future.A BUNDLE OF MIRACLES creates just the right blend of feistiness and tenderness to keep the reader hooked. With a touch of charisma and a heavy dose of humor, Amy Frazier will delight romance lovers. Further, I applaud Frazier's choice of heroines, for not only making the character a survival of breast cancer, but allowing her to not choose reconstructive surgery--thereby making Abbie a bold and unprecedented character with spirit and strength readers won't quickly forget. Highly recommended.
