When Father Tims wife, Cynthia, asks what he wants for Christmas, he pens the answer in a love letter that bares his most private feelings. Then the letter goes missing and circulates among his astonished neighbours. So much for private. Can a letter change a life? Ask Helene, the piano teacher who has avoided her feelings for a lifetime. Ask Hope, the village bookseller who desperately needs something thats impossibly out of reach. Or, if youd like to know how a brush with death can be the portal to a happy marriage, Cynthia will tell you all about it. In My Beloved, Harley gets an important letter of his own a broken heart teaches the Old Mayor, Esther Cunningham, a lesson long in coming and thanks to Lace and Dooley, readers get what theyve been waiting for Sadie. Poignant, hilarious, and lifeaffirming, My Beloved sets a generous table for millions of readers who love these characters like family. With Karons signature humanity shining through on every page, this is a season of life in Mitford you wont want to miss.
