Christmas in Bethel

De: Richard Paul Evans

Narrado por: Helene Maksoud

From Richard Paul Evans, the New York Times bestselling author of The Christmas Promise and The Christmas Box—“the most popular holiday tale since Tiny Tim” (Newsweek)—a new novel celebrating the life-changing power of the holiday spirit.

Leigh Beth Stilton has never liked the holidays. After growing up in an unstable home, escaping an abusive marriage, and witnessing daily tragedies as an EMT, Leigh just can’t bring herself to care about Christmas cheer. In fact, she’s so convinced she’s not worth loving that one winter’s eve, she decides she can’t go on—until she comes across a book called Bethel and starts to read.

Leigh is unfamiliar with the author, J.D. Harper, but his words speak directly to her. She’s never felt so seen and understood, and this connection gives her the strength to carry on. She avidly reads every novel Harper has written, and when he comes to town for a book signing, she jumps at the opportunity to meet the writer who means so much to her.

In a twist of fate, Leigh runs into J.D. in a coffee shop, and the two immediately click. Before she knows it, she’s swept up in a whirlwind of fancy dinners, exciting travel, and the attention of the man whose work has been so meaningful to her. But she’s leery after a lifetime of pain and when she discovers that J.D. hasn’t been completely honest, her hopes are dashed. Can they find their way back to each other and can Leigh learn to trust her heart?

just one great title from my very favorite author.

I always know I'm going to thoroughly enjoy any book I purchase from Richard Paul Evans. I've either read or listenrd to ALL of his titles and have yet to be completely disappointed. I just wish they would be released more quickly. That's my only disappointment. The characters were easy to relate to and the story was emotional and uplifting as always. He's a feel-good writer and in today's world, we never get enough of that.

I came upon this by accident, and I’m so glad I did. I was taken by the beauty of the writing, the depth of the story line, and the soothing voice of the narrator. It brought me a kind of inner peace.
