Shirley, Goodness and Mercy are back! These three irresistible angels love their assignments on Earth. They especially love helping people who send prayer requests to Heaven (even though the Archangel Gabriel, their boss, knows they're going to break his rules)!

This Christmas, Mercy is assigned to bring peace of mind to an elderly man— who discovers an unexpected answer to his prayer.

Goodness is sent to oversee the love life of a young woman afraid to risk commitment a second time. And Shirley has the task of granting a little boy's fondest Christmas wish.

Publishers Weekly

Archangel Gabriel and his three mischievous Prayer Ambassadors-Shirley, Goodness and Mercy-lend their celestial aid to three needy Christmas cases. Harry Alderwood, 86, prays that his increasingly forgetful wife, Rosalie, will agree to move into assisted living before he dies. Meanwhile, nine-year-old Carter Jackson begs God for a dog, even though his mother and father tell him that they can't afford to keep a pet, while Beth Fischer's mother prays that her divorced paralegal daughter, nightly engrossed in a World of Warcraft online game, will start a new life. The busybody angels work behind the scenes and provide a few delightful surprise twists as lives transform. (Oct.)

Library Journal

After a long hiatus, Macomber's beloved angels Shirley, Goodness, and Mercy are back for Christmas and in fine form as they lend a hand in fulfilling some difficult Christmas prayers-despite a very wary Archangel Gabriel who well knows that where these three go, trouble always follows. Answering the prayers of a dying man who wants to ensure that his wife will be cared for when he's gone, a mother who wants her daughter to find love again, and a little boy who wants a dog is now the responsibility of these Angelic Prayer Ambassadors, who will do everything in their power-within the rules or not. Poignant, loving, and heartwarming, this volume is one to cherish, and fans are sure to be waiting. The ever-popular and prolific Macomber (74 Seaside Avenue) lives in Port Orchard, WA.
