LibraryThing book review...
Grace by Richard Paul Evans
Eric is having a tough time after a recent move, his father not being able to work due to an injury, and just the normal teenage stuff. He works part-time at a burger joint to help out and this is where he meets Grace, while she is digging in a dumpster for food. He is kind and invites her into the restaurant to eat. They talk and Grace tells Eric that she is a runaway. He tells her she can stay in the clubhouse on his parents' property and she accepts. Grace and Eric's lives will never be the same after this Christmas...
I truly love books by Richard Paul Evans and this one is no exception. It is a tender story that brought out all my emotions. I felt for Eric and for Grace, both had tough choices to make. The only problem I had with the book was how come neither Eric or Grace told the authorities what had really happened with her step-dad? That part was unbelievable to me, but otherwise a very touching Christmas story.

I really want to read this. I have it on reserve at the library-just depends on how long it takes to get it.
I love all his books too...I have this one on my wishlist..thx for the great review!
Oh this sounds really good...I have not read any of his previous books, but my book club is reading Finding Noel this month. I am looking forward to starting that this weekend.
