Some mistakes carve wounds. Others, however, carve paths—twisting, unexpected roads that lead straight to the heart of what truly matters.

Christmas has a way of finding the lonely, the forgotten, and those who no longer dare to hope. In Christmas at Red Butte, Montgomery gifts us a tale wrapped in longing and tied with the ribbon of unexpected joy. The cold prairies seem empty, the holiday spirit a distant dream—until a single spark of kindness turns the season into something magical. This is a story of simple people whose hearts beat in quiet resilience, of family bonds stretched thin by fate yet mended by love, and of Christmas arriving not in grand gestures, but in the warmth of an open door.

Christmas is not in the lights, nor the gifts, nor the glittering decorations—it is in the hands that give, the hearts that open, the kindness that expects nothing in return. A Christmas Inspiration is a tale that shimmers with the quiet beauty of generosity, a story where one small act of warmth illuminates the season far brighter than any candle. With Montgomery's signature grace, the narrative unfolds like freshly fallen snow—soft, luminous, and filled with the hush of something deeply, unmistakably good.

Short stories have always been a sort of instant access into an author’s brain, their soul and heart.

Genius is written in their names.
