In this gentle prequel to the Saint Maggie Series, widow Maggie Blaine has scant joy in Christmas of 1852. Having lost her husband nearly three years earlier and her much-loved Aunt Letty that year, she struggles to maintain the boarding house and feed and care for those who live in it. Finally, she hires a woman named Emily Johnson to help her. Even though Maggie is white and Emily is black, the two women become friends. When Emily and her husband Nate suffer a disaster, the financially-challenged Maggie decides help them at the expense of Christmas dinner and her beloved Dundee cake.
