Love's Celebration, December 1998, 4 1/2 Star EXCELLENT rating from Romantic Times! 

Monica Jackson has written a heartwarming Christmas/Kwanzaa story that will reign in our memories for years to come.  LOVE'S CELEBRATION is a literary fantasy with all the best
ingredients--humor, adventure and romance.  First and always, romance.
--Romantic Times

   Teddi Henderson's life had been shattered by a terse note.  J.T., the man she loved, trusted, wed, and bore a child with, had left--with no warning, and without an explanation.  Anger so strong it hurt mixed with love for J.T. that could never die burned with her.  She wanted to curl up and die, but she had a daughter who needed her.  Two years have past since that awful day and Teddi has since returned to her Midwestern hometown.  As she bravely faces the celebration of Kwanzaa, the holiday season her husband loved most, she never dreamed he would explode back into her life, bringing deadly danger.    Is it possible that J.T. is what he claims to be; a government agent with secrets with killing for?  This only happened in the movies. not in a sleepy Kansas town.  But it is happening, and now Teddi must put all her faith and trust in the man she married, but never really knew.  Because like it or not, he is the only chance to save everything that matters most.

Love's Celebration is a sweet fantasy froth that features, finally, a functional extended family!  It's a different read, an escapist adventure and the plot doesn't have a lot to do with the day to day realities of life. Adventure, excitement and the zippy  pace you expect from me intertwine  with family love, warmth and traditions.  Learn everything you ever wondered about Kwanzaa and try out 33 recipes from Africa and lands of the African Diaspora, including traditional African-American dishes.
