Elizabeth has been involved in multiple tragic events, including postpartum depression which caused her to run from her children before she hurt them, and a car accident which stole her memories. It's been a long road back and she has finally managed to piece her history together, but doesn't believe she deserves to have the family she loves. When her husband, who has been accused of her murder, shows up and demands that she come home to straighten things out and sign divorce papers, she's beyond stunned. The road back is tenuous an difficult, as is the journey trust to become a family again. A very emotional read, and wonderful story about the magic of Christmas. Definitely recommend!

I always love a good Christmas read and RaeAnne Thayne is one to provide that Coming Home for Christmas. The characters are ones you can fall in love with quickly and the plot draws you in to a great story.

Elizabeth Hamilton gets overtaken by postpartum depression and what happens to her will leave your heart breaking for her. Elizabeth has been missing for seven years and when her husband Luke gets information of where she is staying, he takes a trip to get her and bring her back to clear his name in town as a murderer. Luke has a lot of anger towards Elizabeth and when he finally finds her, he doesn't have much to say to her. Elizabeth tries to talk to him on the way back to his house, but Luke doesn't have much to say.

When they get to town and Elizabeth goes to clear Luke's name and tells her version of the past seven years, you will have a change of heart about her for sure. What Elizabeth did, she thought was best for her family, but was it really? Everyone will have their own opinion of what Elizabeth should have done, especially in a small town. Rumors fly for sure. Luke has learned how to deal with the rumors, but what will Elizabeth do when faced with the rumors? Will she run away again or will she learn to deal with it all as Luke has had to do?

Luke and ELizabeth's kids will steal your heart immediately. I fell in love with them and just wanted to give them a big hug as well. The whole family has to learn how to deal with a new life. Will it all work for them or will they just go their separate way as they have been doing? I love that this story takes place at Christmas. The spirit of Christmas is always a special one and to be able to share it with loved ones is very special.

You have to read this story for yourself. You will not be disappointed. There were no lulls in this story for me at all. It flowed really well and kept my attention at all times. I am anxious to see what RaeAnne Thayne has in store next for her readers.

All opinions in this review are my own. Thanks to Netgalley, the publisher and the author for an advanced copy of this book. I really enjoyed it!

I always expect an amazing book from this author, especially during the holidays. This book…it was so much more for me. It grabbed my heart from the very first pages and never let go, even after I finished. I won’t retell the story – you should read it for yourself as Ms. Thayne does a much better job than I ever could – but I can tell you some of the things I loved.

What happens to Elizabeth Hamilton is devastating. What starts as postpartum depression morphs into something so bad that it gutted me. Even with the unbelievable seven years she went missing, I loved how her character had to learn how to just ‘be’ again. She sacrificed a life with her family, thinking they were better off without her. And Luke, her husband, is so strong and although he is unbelievably angry with his formerly missing wife (and he has his reasons), he still has a heart of gold and listens to that heart when it tells him to listen, watch and help Elizabeth… It’s those cues and clues that can bring them together.

And the children…OMG, your heart will embrace them, break for them, and joyously burst, all in the same book. I loved how this family worked hard to come together again through their individual grief. Luke was an amazing father to his two young children, especially while his wife was “lost”, and the kids are truly characters. I really was engaged from the start of the book, well past the end. Coming Home for Christmas is a special holiday read.

Wonderful romantic Christmas story. I really loved the characters and the town. This story deals with depression and how it can completely change a families life and future. This is the first book that I have read by this author and will be looking for more of her books

His wife disappeared 7 long years ago . Luke had nothing to do with her disappearance, despite the gossips in town saying he probably murdered her. He continues to work and raise his two children with the help. of his sister. After seven years, his future brother-in-law locates his wife, living in another town, under an assumed name. She has begun to regain her memory when Luke shows up on the doorstep determined to take her back to prove he is innocent! Sparks of one kind or another start to fly. A worth addition to the Haven Point series by Thayne.

Complex story about coming home when you've made a mess of things.
Touches on depression and post partum depression as well as traumatic brain injury. Despite all of this I found it to be positive and heartwarming. A beautiful Christmas story.

Another wonderful book by raeanne Thayne, for Elizabeth when things go bad and she becomes in a dark place almost taking the life of her child and herself.. but instead putting her child back in his crib and walking away from her family thinking they are much better off without her in their life..
Ending up in a truck with a truck with a stranger.
Comes to a tragic part in her life ending up in the hospital in a coma things have changed by the time everything is done she becomes Sonia.
But her husband is looking for her to clear his name because the town they are from they believe he has murdered his wife he has to clear his name to get things settled...
I truly loved this book I suggest these books to everyone if you haven't picked up a raeanne Thayne book you really should you will be hooked just like me I would give this book 10 Stars if I was able to it's that good truly loved this story....

Coming Home for Christmas by RaeAnne Thayne. I loved this book. There was mystery, love, true family values. There was sadness along the way for Elizabeth and her family. But so much happiness too. I loved Elizabeth and Luke’s story. Read the story was probably one of RaeAnne Thayne’s best ever books. And it is one of my favorite types of books a Christmas story.
