When all seems lost, a Christmas miracle walks in…
Albany, Oregon
December, 1937
Despite the lingering Depression, Albany, Oregon is lit up for Christmas. The entire town is bright with hope ushered in with the holiday season. But Jane Scott’s dream for the perfect Christmas is ruined. She’s accepted to the University of Oregon, yet denied the scholarship that would allow her to attend. On top of that her boyfriend, Jack Arthur, stands her up just when she needs him most. Faced with not earning a teaching degree she wonders if she could be happy living life as her mother has—as a woman contented with all things domestic. As each day seems darker, Jane’s strength and faith is tested.
Feeling as though everything she had counted on is fading away, she flounders for an anchor. Little by little the Scott family Christmas traditions and a benefactor’s encouragement remind her of what the season is all about, what she is all about. Can plans for a new job pay enough for tuition? Does Jack’s mysterious absence mean the end of their future together? Is a Christmas miracle on the way?

Christmas books always give us lessons to learn in life. Always Noel will do that to you. This is a very short but sweet book to read. Failure always makes us ugly cry but if we keep on going, that dream will come true. Sometimes life gives us other options to achieve our goals in life. There are angels that will always help us if we do not give up our dreams. Christmas miracles always happen. It is a beautiful holiday where family near or far reunites to celebrate what makes our family stay together. It is also a wonderful day to seal the love of forever.
