Praise for Christmas at Carnton:
"I thoroughly enjoyed
Christmas at Carnton! Tamera Alexander conveys the heartache and hardship of being a widow during the Civil War era, even as she invites us to take a deep breath, relax, and become absorbed in Jake and Aletta's journey.
This tender love story between two wounded people whom God brings together for healing is a book readers will enjoy anytime—but especially at Christmas!"~
Francine Rivers,
New York Times bestselling author of
Redeeming Love and
A Voice in the Wind"
Alexander intertwines love, war's cruelties, disabilities, and perseverance in a way that captivates readers. Her well-developed characters and attention to historical detail sweep readers back to the American Civil War..."
"Alexander simply knows how to tell a lovely, heartwarming story that is good for the soul... The characters are well-developed, and the story and the history is so well done and woven together. Dealing with grief, loss, and the unknown, will often bring one to question the world and look for answers. Alexander weaves this into the story in a magical way."
~ Fallon Willoughby, Bowling Green DAILY NEWS
“Alexander brings us yet another amazing read. If you have read her before, this novel does not disappoint…The reader will be sucked into this page-turner and experience the emotion that the characters are feeling. You won't want to miss this novella.”
~ Romantic Times, 4 STAR Review
"With heartwarming humor, romance (and recipes) to savor, Tamera Alexander delivers a sweet, second-chance love story between a widow and a wounded soldier. A wonderful Christmas gift for readers everywhere!"
~ Julie Klassen, bestselling author of The Ladies of Ivy Cottage
"This book is a great reminder to me of why we need to read stories and not just history. Stories flesh out history and help one really feel what it must have been like to be pregnant or have small children, a dead husband, and about to be turned out of your home... This book made me see various aspects of the Civil War in a new way. I appreciated that. I would highly recommend it."
