A TERRIBLE SECRET. A SECOND CHANCE. AND A HOPE FOR A CHRISTMAS MIRACLE, IF THEY CAN JUST HEAL THEIR PAST…
After a painful divorce, small-town bookstore owner, Beth Carrigan, has rebuilt a quiet life in northern Wisconsin. The last thing she expects is her ex-husband Devlin—a decorated Marine—coming back with life-changing news: his late mother’s will binds them together for six months with a shocking ultimatum.
To secure the future they each desperately need—Beth’s beloved bookstore and Dev’s full inheritance—they must work side by side for six months to manage his mother’s stately home, now a temporary refuge for down-on-their-luck residents. It’s a daunting mission that requires compassion, cooperation…and working together despite their painful divorce.
But someone doesn’t want them to succeed.
A string of “accidents” becomes increasingly dangerous. Sabotage, secrets, and a long-held grudge threaten not just their second chance at love but the lives of others.
This Christmas, healing a broken heart will be the least of her worries.
