She feels she’s lost everything…

Will love give her hope?

When a wildfire destroys her home, widowed schoolteacher Tori Stallings finds herself unexpectedly living with her mother- and brother-in-law—and struggling with her faith. With everything Tori owns consumed by the blaze, Micah vows to help his late brother’s wife and son rebuild their lives. The two of them have always been friends, but living under the same roof has their friendship turning into something more. Can love bloom amid tragic loss and shaken beliefs, and give them a fresh start for Christmas?

Rediscovering Christmas Reviews

5.0
“This is a fantastic read. I really loved getting Tori’s story and I think Mindy did a wonderful job at detailing Tori’s struggles after all Tori had gone through. I could definitely identify with Tori’s feelings and emotions after everything she had gone through and I thought her return to faith was very natural and well written. A superbly written perfect finale to the Hope Crossing series! I received a copy of this book from the author and was not required to post a positive review. All thoughts are my own.”
“Rediscovering Christmas by Mindy Obenhaus concludes her Hope Crossing series. This one was my absolute favorite. Set against the backdrop of the Christmas season, the novel overflows with emotion and heartfelt connections among its characters. The development of these characters and the plot is exceptional. Obenhaus skillfully crafts a beautiful story about loss, hope, and love. My thanks to the author/publisher for the ARC of this book. I was under no obligation to provide a review, and the thoughts contained herein are my own.”
“This was a total 5-star read for me. It's not just a romance, it is also a story of redemption. Tori has been dealt some hard blows in life that have left her grappling with her faith. So much so she becomes angry with God and starts questioning his hand in her life. But thank goodness for the guidance, patience and persistance of her best friend Micah. Micah and Tori have been best friends since they were kids and nothing ever came between them, that is until she married his brother Joel. But the more Joel is away (in the service) the more Micah comes back around to support his friend Tori, and his nephew. When Joel is killed in the line of duty Micah steps it up to be there for Tori and Aiden (his nephew). But when Tori's home is lost in a fire, and she and Aiden have to move in... it is a bit too much for Micah to handle. He's always loved her, but that's his SIL and she will never see him like that. Plus, he's spent his life in Joel's shadow, he certainly isn't trying to step in and be a backup option for Tori. But Tori needs Micah, as a friend, a male in her sons life, and just guidance as she struggles with her faith. As they feel a pull towards each other, they both try to ignore it, but for how long? And when a job opportunity gives Micah a chance to get the space he needs from his feelings for Tori, what happens if he takes it?! What to expect: Christian Romance Faith themes / bible verses Friends to Lovers Widowed/single FMC Firefighter MMC BOTH are teachers They are BIL & SIL Mindy is an amazing author, I literally picked up this book TODAY and read it all TODAY, I just had to follow through with this story. Plus, I am not going to lie.... Micah is pretty much a dream MMC, so yeah, I half stuck it out to keep reading more about him, and how amazing he is, lol. LOVED this story, can not wait to see what is next for Mindy! I received a free copy of this book, but my review expresses my own opinions.”
