MY FAVORITE THINGS
A Christmas Historical Romance Collection
© 2019 Lynsay Sands
“All I want for Christmas is for your father to stop his gambling before he sees us in debtors’ prison.”
Creditors were starting to arrive at the door every day now. And there were a lot of them. Her father, of course, was never available.
When he was home, he was sleeping off the drink from the night before. When he was awake, he wasn’t home but off drinking and gambling them closer to ruin. Bentley had managed to turn away the creditors so far, but soon they would not be brushed off. Debtors’ prison was becoming a very real possibility. Why could her father not see what he was doing?
“That is all I want for Christmas,” her mother said now. “And I pray to God for it every day.” For a moment Prudence felt sadness weigh her down; then she grimly straightened her shoulders. Her mother was of the old school, where a wife did not question her husband or his behavior. Prudence was of the firm belief that when the husband was destroying his family, someone needed to alert him to the matter. Besides, it had always been her opinion that God helped those who helped themselves.
Which left it up to her to see if she could help God wrap this Christmas wish up for her mother.
