This "heartwarming slice of small town life" brings a Christmas romance to a lonely widower and new hope for his daughter— "The perfect holiday read" (USA Today).

As the holidays descend on the Hudson Valley town of Linden Corners, with a flurry of cooking, shopping, and visitors, young Janey Sullivan is worried her Christmas traditions may get lost in the mix. Though she loves her adoptive father, Brian Duncan, she longs for her birth parents and questions her past. But an unexpected yuletide visitor may just have the answers she needs.

Haunted by the loss of his soul mate, Brian is reluctant to test the waters of the dating pool. He hardly has time to think about it anyway—until newcomer Trina Winter arrives in town. Meeting her has brought a light to Brian's spirit that Janey hasn't seen in some time. As they grapple with the pain of the past, Janey, Brian, and Trina will each learn to make changes that could lead to a bright new future—and perhaps the family they've always dreamed of.

"A lovely Christmas story—and a wonderful place to visit at Christmas or anytime." —RT Book Reviews
