Tonight....even you may find a jar.
So much of our lives are a result of another's intersection. Hope Jensen was abandoned as a baby, left on a booth seat at the Chuck's Chicken `n' Biscuits, six miles outside of town on Highway 4. Abandoned, but then found by an unsuspecting Louise Jensen who always stopped by Chuck's on New Year's Eve. The very same Hope who returned to her "hometown" after college to make her name in journalism. Now alone after Louise's death, Hope returns to her apartment that first solitary
Christmas
Eve and finds her apartment ransacked. Everything gone, including Hope's belief that people were basically good and kind. Stepping out of the mess to catch her breath, Hope stumbles over a brown paper bag containing a jar filled with cash. Where did the jar come from? Puzzled by the unexpected windfall, Hope sets out to find out where the money came from....sure she has stumbled on a front page story. No matter which way she turns, her questions are turned aside. The most promising lead, the Maxwell family does not open up to Hope's questions; they open their hearts and bring her into their family. Hope still wants the story, but the warmth of the Maxwell's home is equally appealing.
Jason F. Wright has crafted a simple, heartwarming tale about the effect one kind act can have as its recipient and the ripple effect that kindness sets in motion. Never saccharine, Wright reminds readers that every one of us has the ability and opportunity to affect the lives of someone around us. This is a hopeful (no pun intended) tale that will lift the reader and restore a bit of faith in those around them. You may even start a Christmas jar of your own.

Christmas gift
