First comes love. Josie McFarland loves her fiancé Joe for who he is, not what he has. His money is short, but his giving spirit is immeasurable. He hears her and he sees her. And embraces her crazy wild schemes . . . even if it means bringing the North Pole to New York City to fulfill her childhood dream. Joe Cantonelli hasn’t been the same since a nor’easter blew Josie straight into his heart. She colors his life with laughter and makes him dream of possibilities he would never hope for . . . like the former doorman of The Grande Pearl marrying the grandniece of its richest resident. Then comes—a future mother-in-law bent on stopping the marriage. Josie knows Joe is the man for her. But Joe is convinced she can do better. Hogwash! It doesn’t help that her class-conscious mother agrees and is scheming to stop their wedding. With only a few days before their Christmas I Dos, Josie is hanging strong to her mustard seed of faith. She can’t change their hearts, but God can. He can heal the divide and give them their happily ever after. Christmas Wedding at The Grande Pearl is a short interracial bwwm holiday romance.
