I'll Be Home for Christmas »

Julie L. Cannon is a multi-published author as well as a speaker and entertainer who travels across the country serving up helpings of down-home humor and warmth described as "Southern-fried soul food." She lives with her husband and three children in Watkinsville, Georgia.

With Bing Crosby's "I'll Be Home for Christmas" playing in the background, Maggie Culpepper and William Byrd proclaim their undying love to one another. But with the U.S. at war and Maggie's personal home front under attack, the Southern belle impetuously joins the WAVES (Women Accepted for Voluntary Emergency Service).



When Christmas draws near and Maggie finds herself miles and miles away from her Georgia hometown...and her beloved William...will she realize that, no matter where she spends Christmas, home is where her heart is?
