Snowflakes are falling, there’s carol singing on every corner, and Leah Evans is preparing for a family Christmas at her grandmother’s majestic plantation house in Virginia. It won’t be the same now that her beloved Nan is gone, but when Leah discovers she has inherited the mansion, she knows she can give her daughter Sadie the childhood of her dreams.
* * *
But there’s a catch. Leah must split the house with a man called David Forester. Leah hasn’t heard that name in a long time. Not since they were kids, when Davey was always there to catch her.
* * *
Now David is all grown up. He’s gorgeous, successful, and certain of one thing: Leah should sell him her half of the house.
* * *
They can’t agree, but as they share memories over wine by the log fire, Leah notices a fluttering in her stomach. And by the look in his eyes, he’s starting to feel it too.
* * *
Will it be Leah or David who must give up their dreams? Or, with a little bit of Christmas magic, will they finally understand Nan’s advice to them both about living life without regrets… and take a chance on true love?

* * *

A warm thank-you must go to Oliver Rhodes for his guidance and direction over the years. He is the one who first breathed life into this career of mine, and keeps me going strong, book after book. I will be forever grateful.
To the wonderful Natasha Harding, who gets to hear my one thousand questions every time something new pops up. She answers them all with grace and kindness, and I am so lucky to have her on my side.
The team at Bookouture is second to none. I am thankful every day that I found this amazing publisher and that I’ve been able to grow with it. A big thank-you to the team for all the behind-the-scenes action that is required to get my books into the hands of readers.
And I couldn’t do any of it without my family. To Justin, for all the household chores he’s finished (or done all on his own), the nights out to celebrate the big days and to relax after the tough ones, and the listening ear through it all, I am so grateful. To my kids who get to have first-hand knowledge of every single thing that comes my way as I drag my computer to parks, skating rinks, and trampoline arenas, I thank you too!
I’m blessed every day to be in this field and I couldn’t do it without prayer and faith. What a ride!
