The New York Times–bestselling author of The Christmas Hope returns with a heartwarming tale of two families sharing holiday traditions across time. In June 1972, John Creighton determines to build his wife Joan a kitchen table. Though he’s never built anything larger than a picture frame, he promises to have the table ready for Thanksgiving dinner. Inspired to put something delicious on the table, Joan turns to the recipes she got from her mother as a wedding gift. In June 2012, newlyweds Travis and Lauren Mabrey discovers she’s pregnant. When Gloria, Miriam, and the rest of her friends at Glory’s Place begin to pitch in, a second-hand table reveals a surprise inside the drawer: a stack of recipe cards. Having grown up without a family, Lauren is fascinated as she reads through the cards. Personal notes on each card make Lauren wonder about the mother and daughter who shared them. Alternating between 1972 and 2012, The Christmas Table unfolds a heartwarming tale of two families who share a unique bond. As Christmas nears, Lauren hopes to unlock the mystery of the table and find the peace she’s always longed for . . .

Donna VanLiere's Christmas books have enthralled millions of readers. Now she delivers another inspirational novel about an unlikely friendship between two women—a friendship that will change each of their lives forever. The Christmas Note is now a Hallmark TV movie! Gretchen Daniels has recently moved into a condo with her two children to be closer to her mother, Miriam. As they build a life together in their new community, they notice a mysterious young woman, Melissa McCreary, who lives next door. She has few possessions, little personality, and keeps to herself. One day a local landlord who is looking for Melissa knocks on Gretchen's door for assistance. Melissa's mother has died and in the coming weeks the landlord needs Melissa to empty her mother's apartment. Gretchen reaches out and offers to help Melissa, but the apartment is a gut-wrenching shamble of a home. There is little worth saving except for a few photos and a note that is discovered on the crate beside the bed. It is unfinished, but in the two scribbled lines, Melissa discovers secrets about her family that she never could have imagined. Can two very different women embark on a journey that explores a long-buried need for forgiveness, hope, and redemption?
