Robert Robinson, a famed author from New York City, is traveling unwillingly through a snowstorm on his way to a small farm in upstate New York owned by his editor. Robert's popularity from the success of his books has changed him. His indulgence in big-city parties and being in the spotlight has allowed his arrogance to swell and for him to lose focus of his obligations. Now, being excessively late on the third book of a three-book contract, he is given an ultimatum. He can either face legal action from his publisher or take one last chance to finish his book away from all the big-city distractions. Patty has her own issues, dealing with the memories of her late husband. Always at the edge of depression, she somehow remains visibly strong and in control of her emotions, despite her internal turmoil. While Patty's father is away to be with a dying friend, she assumes the responsibility of caring for the old farm owned by the New York editor and is in no mood for an arrogant Christmas romance. Robert is oblivious to Christmas and all that goes along with it. His parents loved Christmas, but he hadn't spoken with them in over eight years after their argument. Over the years, he has slowly disconnected from everything that reminded him of them. Christmas just became a day for a bigger party. While at the old farmhouse, Robert discovers something that has been hidden there for possibly generations. What secrets lay just beyond an old screeching gate, and the holiday angel? Will the Christmas truths he is given penetrate his hardened heart? Will the miracle of an old time Christmas find its way into Robert’s heart? Will the Christmas story from the Bible fill him with a humble thanksgiving? Find out in the story, "The Christmas Gate."
