An Old Fashioned Christmas 
Raised on a New Hampshire farm by her hard-working mother, Mathilda “Tilly” Bassett had dreams of becoming a writer. Thousands of miles from home, some dreams are beginning to come true. For years, Tilly’s dreams expanded far beyond her New Hampshire horizons. Then comes the opportunity to reach those dreams when her seasoned and wealthy grandmother, Isabella Caldwell, a true force of nature, who has made it her mission to show Tilly the world, uproots her from her humble life. Now, just ten days before Christmas, they’ve arrived in Dublin for a purposeful visit: Isabella is introducing Tilly to Earl of Shannon, Ireland’s poet laureate, Isabella’s old friend, and Tilly’s new mentor—all part of a grand scheme to make Tilly a published author. But with her independent Yankee spirit still showing beneath the finery, and a tongue sharp enough to clip a hedge, Tilly’s making an impression few will forget.

The Christmas Heart
When tragedy strikes, one family finds an empowering strength in faith and in the inspiring spirit of a community to make a Christmas wish come true. A record storm is headed for the Great Lakes, but the holiday spirit of the families on Arthur Avenue in Cleveland won’t be broken. It’s only days until Christmas and nothing can prevent them from their annual lighting of the Christmas luminaries. But everything changes when neighborhood couple Mike and Ann Norman discover that their teenage son, Matt, has suddenly collapsed during basketball practice. Suffering from a rare heart condition, his chance of survival is slim without a transplant. With only a short window to save him, the Normans are devastated, hoping against hope for a miracle. Days later, more than 150 miles away in Detroit, a tragic accident claims the ill-fated life of baby-faced punk Jimmy Mars. He’s left behind a pregnant girlfriend named Nikki and a broken mother, Elizabeth. After wrestling with her emotions, and as Nikki prepares to give birth, Elizabeth agrees to donate her son’s heart. She has no way of knowing what such a decision means to a family of strangers on Arthur Avenue. But as the winter squall bears down, the transportation of the heart is impeded by escalating complications. With time running out, the Normans can only wait and pray for a Christmas miracle
