~It’s all about the miraculous spirit of Christmas~
Miracle Circle, Book 2

If you enjoy Hallmark small town holiday specials, you'll love Stephany Tullis' made for the big screen larger than life characters!

Mayor Luke Evans and Deputy Mayor Jocelyn Lopez promise Smoothville, Georgia residents a Christmas celebration like none other in order to heal their broken city torn apart by the recent mayoral election. After all, everyone loves Christmas. What better way to mend ill will?

Luke resolves to do whatever it takes to regain the trust of Smoothville citizens and even more importantly, his wife and friends. He charges his team to plan an event that will put Smoothville on the map; —and of course, make his citizens forget about last year’s fiasco.

Newly appointed Smoothville City Manager and an award-winning project manager, Angelica Mason, agrees to undertake the massive project but only after conferring with Lopez—Luke’s rival and nemesis.

When Angelica’s faithful sidekick and well-known political strategist, Jonathan Jarewski,aka JaRew, takes on the role of lead assistant, the holiday event takes on a life of its own. One modeled after NYC’s annual tree lighting at Rockefeller Center. As Christmas approaches, JaRew discovers someone’s out to sabotage Smoothville’s Christmas Extravaganza. And he's determined to identify the culprit.

Smoothville residents’ tempers flare when rumors circulate that the mayor never planned to deliver on his promise. Angelica convinces Luke and Jocelyn they need a special SWAT team to identify the Grinch in their midst.

The SWAT team and Smoothville residents work around the clock to salvage Smoothville’s Christmas celebration. Christmas music, holiday food and festivities, and a few angelic hosts make this Christmas novel a holiday favorite; a beautiful story about the magic of Christmas, the strength of family and friends and the power of forgiveness.

48 Hours ‘Til Christmas by USA Today bestselling women’s fiction author Stephany Tullis.
“It’s all about the miraculous spirit of Christmas.”

3.0 out of 5 stars Interesting Christmas tale

A quick read centered around the town of Smoothville and its residents. After Luke Evans wins the mayoral election in an underhanded way he promises a Christmas Extravaganza to repair the damage. The concept for the story is interesting and I felt should have been a "feel good" hallmark style Christmas tale. However, the characters were flat and emotionless- their interactions were forced and unnatural. I did love the Christmas Carols sprinkles throughout- it was a clever way to enhance an otherwise average read.

I have read two of Stephany Tullis’ novels, and just made my way to 48 Hours ‘Til Christmas. A wonderful holiday read to suggest to friends or gift via ebook in Christmas stockings this year. It is comforting to get to know an author through their work, and this third read simply reconfirms that Ms. Tullis produces exemplary stories replete with incomparable characters.

The Masters Plan is set in Smoothville, GA, so readers go back once again to see what Reverend Woodrow Jones is dealing with this go-round. Seems although Luke Evans was elected mayor, it might’ve been due to shifty actions, and as the mayor plans an extravagant Christmas celebration, those determined to undermine his event jump into action.

This is where Rev. Woody comes into play with a rescue strategy that will incorporate citizens and hopefully turn animosity back to goodwill. Is it possible to repair damaged friendships, shattered trust, and reunite a town divided?

48 Hours ‘Til Christmas will put you into a true spirit of giving and remind everyone that forgiveness and humility are good for the soul.

5.0 out of 5 stars Not just a Christmas story!
Reviewed in the United States on December 29, 2014

A quick, fun read with a message about pulling together, even after discord. About the struggle to become better people, even after we've let others down. And about finding the true spirit of Christmas. It's not just a Christmas story, though. The grinches in our lives are out there all year round. So the struggle to find, and hold onto, that special joy found at Christmas time is always worth the challenge. Like her previous book, The Master's Plan, this story provides a heartfelt look at all the behind the scenes wrangling that goes on in groups trying to plan events and foster community. Flawed, but endearing characters are everywhere--some of them textbook examples of the kind of characters I've encountered in my own community service experiences. Such a hopeful story it'll make you believe all that effort is worthwhile.

I found the character development a bit weak. Also the context of the book hard to accept due to the US Presidential election. This being about a Christmas celebration when there are larger consequences with upcoming Trump,administration made it hard to take seriously enough to enjoy.

I did enjoy this book, though at first I wondered where it was going. I was sure I had encountered that Luke character before, perhaps in another book. So I was kind-of predestined to blame him for everything, and as it turned out...
However, the Christmassy feel was fantastic

5.0 out of 5 stars What a Cracking Little Story
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on December 22, 2014

This is a lovely novel. Set in small town America, Stephany Tullis has created a story based around regular people who’ve made mistakes and in some cases find it difficult to forgive themselves.

This novel is about forgiveness and much, much more. Stephany’s characters are all too human. There are no superheroes here, just regular people. Some are in positions of authority admittedly but their weaknesses are not viewed as such. They are at times below par, deficient and off-form, although Tullis uses this with extreme skill to demonstrate the the comic verse, the nursery rhyme and the Christmas carol that is in all of us.

The novel’s about Christmas, and so this is the right time of year to read it because there is Christmas warmth flowing through every page, but Tullis has woven deeper messages throughout the book. You’ll have to read it to find out.

Don’t miss this one.

Having read Stephany Tullis' THE MASTER'S PLAN, it made sense that with Christmas approaching rapidly, that I read this one as well and I was glad to do so. Told from many different perspectives, this is the story of the greatest Christmas that Smoothville has ever seen and all that needed to happen to make it turn from a plan into reality. The old favourite characters popped in for some help, while new ones emerged and made you fall in love with them as well. A definite read this holiday season, or all year round. Once again Tullis has constructed a book that is engaging and keeps you guessing to the last moment as to who is the one trying to sabotage their Christmas plans? A great read written beautifully and will keep you turning the pages. Highly recommended!

Some residents of Smoothville know that various shady deals went down to get new Mayor Luke Evans elected, so Luke and his deputy plan a big Christmas extravaganza to bring the townsfolk together again. However, the bad news is that someone is out to sabotage the event. I'm not giving away any spoilers, so you'll have to read it for yourself to find out who is responsible! Great story!

Great story for getting into the Christmas mood. A celebration is planned in the town of Smoothville in honor of the mayor's election, but then things start to go wrong... Can matters get resolved in true Christmas spirit? Full of twists and turns, with well-drawn characters, conflicting relationships and politics, all consummately brought together by the author.
