The Christmas Visitor E-BOOK

A lonely cottage in the Irish countryside...a rare snowstorm the night before Christmas Eve...Escape to the cozy world of Ballydara, a wee, quaint village in the West of Ireland.

"There's a light in the fairy cottage!" And so begins this prequel to the new heartwarming Ballydara novel The Fairy Cottage of Ballydara... Recent widow Maeve O'Donoghue hasn't the heart to celebrate Christmas this year, even though the young granddaughters in her care are hoping for a proper holiday. All that changes when a mysterious stranger appears, seeking shelter for the night--Hazel Carey, who is young enough to be Maeve's granddaughter. In this tender, magical tale, will an unexpected blessing, a mystical encounter and a bit of fairy lore help a grieving family heal? And rediscover the true meaning of Christmas?

The Christmas Visitor and its prequel, The Secret Well, are the origin stories in Susan's Village of Ballydara Emma trilogy... Discover more books featuring the O'Donoghue family and the Carey sisters, including The Little Irish Gift Shop and Becoming Emma!
