| Miracle at Midnight Release date 12/07 |
| Comtesse Amara de la Cortese isn’t a very nice person. In 1507 France, she’s a hard-hearted ruler who thinks nothing of imprisoning beggars and ordering their children sold. Enter one saint—Saint Nicholas—whose quest is to protect the young. He imprisons her in stone as a statue, but he believes in redemption. Once every fifty years, he grants her forty-eight hours of freedom to answer one apparently simple question. Ten chances. The same question. What is the true meaning of love? Sounds simple? Amara, whose heart is stunted by a loveless past, fails each time. On her very last shot at lifting the curse, she finds herself in present-day Manhattan. She meets six-year-old Samantha, who totally believes her fantastic story, and her doctor dad, Nick, who totally doesn’t. Despite the threat hanging over her head, Amara is determined to enjoy her last bout of freedom. With Nick and Sami, she explores New York’s unique style of Christmas. She also finds herself falling in love. All too soon, time runs out, in a way none of them imagined. Will Amara find the answer to that impossible question? Or is she doomed to forever have a heart of stone? |
