Ever since the untimely death of her husband, there always seemed to be a shortage-a shortage of food, a shortage of warm clothing, never enough money, and a shortage of time. Gone were the days when she could play leisurely with her daughter. No longer was there sufficient time to teach her son all the things he needed to know as he grew into a man. Up long before dawn, and always the last one to turn in, Alexandra feared she was fighting a hopeless battle, with no victory in sight. If she only had a bit of luck, she might be able to turn things around. From out of the snowy blackness, a monster reared up on its enormous hind legs and came crashing down, striking the man with a near fatal blow. It would be weeks before he would be able to care for himself. If it weren't for the tender mercies shown by the beautiful woman, with the fiery red hair, he probably would have died. At least that is what he told himself. Sam could have left, but where would he go? Having no memory of who he was or from whence he came, he figured there was no real hurry. Besides, he'd taken quite a shine to the lovely widow and her two children; not to mention, they clearly needed the help he could provide. For weeks they managed to get along quite well, until Alexandra sneaked behind his back and did something they might all regret. Her hasty actions could bring about a sudden end to their relationship. Hopelessly in love with her, he didn't know whether to kiss her sweet lips or wring her lovely neck. However, this is the Christmas season, and it has a way of bringing out the very best in people. Alex and Sam are no exceptions. As the long-awaited day approaches, they learn a few things about themselves and clear up old misunderstandings. They discover many wondrous things to celebrate. Christmas is always special, but some are more memorable than others. No one will ever be the same after this year, for it is a true blessing to have Cash for Christmas.
