In her time, Comtesse Amara de la Cortese was an unfeeling ruler with a heart of stone.  And so, one fateful Christmas, Saint Nicholas turned the heartless ruler into a statue of stone, destined to wake from her prison every fifty years to try and redeem herself by proving she now understands the meaning of love.  She has only ten chances and so far has failed the first nine.

When she wakes for the tenth and final time to find herself in the care of single father Nick and his sweet young daughter Sami, she knows something has changed.  Perhaps Sami is the key to the answer, maybe this innocent child can teach her what all who have come before have failed to show her.

MIRACLE AT MIDNIGHT is the first book I have yet read by Stacia Wolf, but will certainly not be my last.  This powerful story grabbed me from page one, and had me turning the pages just as quickly as I could read them, stopping only to wipe the tears from my eyes at times.  This story will evoke so many emotions from you that by the time you have finished reading, your eyes will be watery, your heart will be full, and you will feel all warm and fuzzy inside.

This is a story not just of romance, but of redemption and sacrifice.  Watching as Amara finally decides to ignore her quest and simply enjoy her last moments of life and the people she has found to spend them with makes one think about how we live our own lives each day, taking for granted the people we love and the time we have.  It was truly inspiring to watch Amara’s evolution from a cruel sovereign to a woman who would do anything, give up anything for the people she has grown to care for.

MIRACLE AT MIDNIGHT has found a permanent home on my bookshelf.  This is the perfect inspirational story to read again and again when one needs to be reminded of what is really important in life.
