A Visit From Sir Nicholas
Sir Nicholas has forgotten the allure of the night sky, until on the Eve of Christmas the North Star guides him to Mary’s door. Now his greatest Christmas wish is to crash down the walls that have kept them apart and to have a second chance with the woman he loved and lost years before.
