Book overview

Christmas in Shelter Springs is the season of twinkling lights, open hearts and unexpected second chances. And for Hannah Goodwin, it also brings the one person she never wanted to see again...

Hannah's built a full life for herself in the warmth of her close-knit town, with her family, her work and her music. And when her dear friend Morgan desperately needs her help, Hannah temporarily steps in to care for Morgan's children. That's what friends do--especially at the holidays. But she never expected to run into Wes Kenner...

Moving back home is the last thing K9 law enforcement officer Wes Kenner ever wanted. It's where he fell in love with Hannah--and where an accident changed his mother's life forever. But when his grandfather needs a helping hand, he can't say no. It's the perfect opportunity for him and his beloved K9, Kodiak, to recover. Still, seeing Hannah again fills him with regret--and hope.

After all this time, Hannah still represents all of the joy and light Wes pushed out of his life. Everything he's desperate to get back. And as Hannah brings much-needed holiday magic to Morgan--and her kids--he realizes this is his chance. Because this Christmas, all he wants is her.

A cozy and uplifting reunion romance about two exes who work together at the holidays to help a family in need--and realize their Christmas wish is for a second chance with their first love.
