By Janet Elaine Smith

     Dr. Byron Ferguson receives a telegram begging his help; the men of Sawbill Landing are dying. He meets the insistent Martha in a small town hotel and reluctantly agrees to take her with him to the logging camp.

    Her affiance dies before her arrival, but Martha finds a true home in Sawbill Landing. The only question is, will the good doctor choose to give their growing love a chance and stay with her? Will the tree perform its first Christmas miracle?
