FROM THE CRITICS
Library Journal
Rachel and Sam McRae are involved in their own series of crushing problems, but when a social worker shows up just before Christmas with three foster children, the couple reluctantly agrees to take them in--just until after the holidays. Of course, children and Christmas have a way of working miracles, and before the New Year arrives, Rachel and Sam have come to terms with their problems and end up with a ready-made family to love. Although this sweet, emotionally involving romance deals with some rather serious issues, its message of love and hope will resonate with readers who enjoy their holiday stories warm, charming, and family-focused. Hill has written a number of Silhouette romances as Sally Tyler Hayes, but this is her first single title. She lives in Greenville, SC. Copyright 2000 Cahners Business Information.

In Baxter, Ohio, registered foster parents Sam and Rachel McRae can no longer deal with the swinging door mentality of child placement after falling in love with Will. The lad stayed with them until a judge ruled his mother deserved another chance and had the lad removed from the McRaes. Sam and Rachel grieve their loss, vowing never again. With Christmas less than two weeks away, Rachel's social worker Aunt Miriam arrives with three small children, eleven year old Emma, five year old Zach, and a baby, Grace. Their mother apparently abandoned them at a nearby motel. Reluctantly, Rachel agrees to nurture the children through Christmas until a home can be found. However, the slight lift in her spirits is dampened when she overhears Sam on the phone telling someone he is leaving her the day after Christmas as love is not enough. Twelve Days is an insightful relationship drama that focuses on the aftermath of fostering a child. Sam and Rachel are a fine hurting couple, while the readers will empathize with the precocious Zach and the determined Grace. However, Emma, a surrogate mother to her siblings, will steal the hearts of the audience as she does Sam and Rachel because of the loss of her childhood and its innocence. Teresa Hill writes an angst-laden story line that has three helpless children teach two battered souls the meaning of the Yuletide season.
