The man he’s become is not the boy she once knew—and he may never forgive her, once he knows the secret she’s been concealing.

"Jean Brashear's distinctive storytelling voice instantly draws in the reader. She writes with warmth and emotional truth.” ~ #1 NY Times bestselling author Debbie Macomber

In this Christmas story set in beloved Sweetgrass Springs, two young lovers torn apart years before come face to face unexpectedly in this emotional reunion romance by New York Times and USAToday bestselling Texas romance author Jean Brashear…

Gib Douglas has been on the road a long time, with no place to really call home. When he pays a Christmas visit to relatives in Sweetgrass Springs, the last person he expects to encounter is the girl he loved with all his heart, the girl who’d promised to marry him and love him forever…until she betrayed him and married someone else.

Dulcie Maguire gave up her dreams so that Gib could follow his all those years ago. She made a decent life for herself while watching him soar to success with great pride, never expecting to see him again. Now widowed, she's in dire straits with four children depending on her, when into her life walks Gib again—and she realizes that she’s never gotten over him.But the man he’s become is not the boy she once knew—and he may never forgive her, once he knows the secret she’s been concealing.

Review

"Jean Brashear's distinctive storytelling voice instantly draws in the reader. She writes with warmth and emotional truth." #1 NY Times bestselling author Debbie Macomber

"An incredibly talented writer who can hit every note with enough clarity to bring the reader to tears, laughter or just 'Oh, my, this is an amazing story.' Jean Brashear will knock your socks off!" New York Times bestselling author Stella Cameron

About the Author

New York Times and USAToday bestselling Texas romance author of over 50 novels, including the popular TEXAS HEROES series, a five-time RITA finalist and RT BOOKReviews Career Achievement Award winner, Jean Brashear knows a lot about taking crazy chances. A lifelong avid reader, at the age of forty-five with no experience and no training, she decided to see if she could write a book. It was a wild leap that turned her whole life upside down, but she would tell you that though she's never been more terrified, she's never felt more exhilarated or more alive. She's an ardent proponent of not putting off your dreams until that elusive 'someday'-take that leap now.

    This was such a sweet story. The narrator we do good that you could tell which character it was by his voice. I have listened to audio books that don't come close to that quality. It is one of the reasons I stopped.

    With Be Mine for Christmas, I will definitely be going back to audio. I could listen while I cooked, decorated the tree, etc.

    Gib and Dulcie's story was filled with so much emotion. The sacrifices Dulcie made for her kids, and Gib's willingness to step in when she needed him, just touched your heart. Also Knowing that neither of them ever stopped loving the other took the romance factor over the top. Even Dulcie's secret was a blip on the radar.

    In this story, you also got to revisit so many
    Sweetwater characters. And the icing on the cake was that all of this occurred during the Christmas season.

    4.0 out of 5 stars A sweet story of 2 lonely people who didn't realize what they gave up
    Reviewed in the United States on October 19, 2016
    Verified Purchase
    This is a very pleasant of 2 people whose lives separated when they were moving from being teenagers toward adulthood.A visit to his only living family brings Gib back to Sweetgrass Springs for Christmas. In the years since he left. He has become a successful auto racing owner and the pain he felt when his girlfriend didn't want him has led him to focus on his career rather than having a wife and children.

    Dulcimer was Gib's girlfriend when she was young, but she feared he would lose his dreams if they stayed together, so she refused contact with him. Fast foreword 15 years and she is still living in Sweetgrass Springs, with 4 children -one teenage daughter and 3 younger special needs children she adopted.

    This story revolves around them as they alternate between finding long-buried feelings and resisting the pain they might bring upon each other. A gentle, loving book peopled by small town caring and support, loving families and hidden feelings and fears. A satisfying Christmas story with a nice resolution.

    I love the series that is written by Jean Brashear. She is an amazing writer that writes amazing stories.

    Listening to this audiobook on the way to and from work, is fantastic. I love listening to this story about the Christmas season during the Christmas season. The way that she brings the season and the characters of Sweetgrass Springs to life is amazing. I also like the way that Eric G. Dove reads and really brings the story to life!!! But then again, I do enjoy all the books from this series!!!

    I loved this book. Dulcie made a sacrifice years ago so Gib could fulfill his dream. When Gib sees her again he realizes he still loves her. I fell in love with the kids. Eric Dove did a wonderful job on the audio book. I was afraid I wouldn't be able to tell who was speaking in the story but Eric had that covered with different voices. Reading, and listening to, Jean Brashear's books always leave me feeling very warm and happy.

    Two young lovers, who go on their separate ways one becoming highly successful who meet up again years later. Dulcie thinking she save Gib, and let him achieve his dreams, kept something from him that could make coming back together impossible. Gib, is still carrying resentment over Dulcie, throwing him over for another and not joining him on his road towards his dreams. This story is sweet, and yes, I can see that this could happen. Jean Brashear, did a great job, of bring each character to development and writing a story well worth reading.
