Single dad Ben Carter has one rule. No more heartbreak.
After losing his wife, he's spent years holding onto tradition, raising his seven-year-old daughter Sophie, and keeping the outside world at a safe distance. But when big-city journalist Charlie Wells arrives in Winterberry Hollow, digging for a story about the town's beloved Christmas festival, she threatens to upend the careful life he's built.
Charlie doesn't believe in holiday magic-she believes in facts. And the truth is, places like Winterberry Hollow are too perfect to be real. But as she spends time in the snow-covered streets, the twinkling lights, and in the orbit of one charmingly stubborn single dad and his matchmaking daughter, she begins to question everything she thought she knew.
The problem? The story she came to write could destroy the town-and the man-she's falling for.
With Christmas fast approaching, Ben and Charlie find themselves at a crossroads: protect their hearts, or risk everything for the kind of love neither of them expected?
A heartwarming small-town Christmas romance about second chances, found family, and believing in magic again.
