Cedar Haven, North Dakota, was under a blanket of snow on Christmas Eve morning. The snow was still coming down. Angela Rose was seventeen years old. She was trudging through the snow while humming a Christmas song that her grandmother used to sing to her when she was a child. She soon approached her destination, where she was to leave the most unexpected gift on the doorstep of Paul and Margaret Riley. Quietly and gently, she placed the gift down in front of the Riley’s door, rang the doorbell, and ran behind a hedge across the street to make sure someone came to the door. The door opened, and the package was received, and from that moment forward, several lives would be changed forever.

A Christmas Angel is a historical novella of Colorado Springs' life circa 1909. The problems that plague our society today (a bank scandal that resulted in a devastating recession, hunger, alcoholism) were in full force in 1909 without the cushion of public social services. But the pluck and love of widowed mother Penelope toward her feisty, overly-dramatic daughter Elsie helps them reach out to a "soiled dove" and her infant.

After the loss of her sister, Maeve struggles with her grief during the holidays.

If they look closely, they will see signs throughout the year as gentle reminders that she is always with them. This is a story of love, loss and hope.

She stooped once more to pick up something which had fallen out when the cover was jarred open. It was a pink papier-mâché angel, such as are often hung from the top of Christmas trees as a crowning symbol. Norah stood holding it between thumb and finger, staring amazedly. Who would think to find such a bit of frivolity in the house of Miss Terry! The Christmas Angel is a stirring reminder of what really matters at Christmas and throughout the year.
