Summary from
Goodreads:
Christmas is
the most wonderful time of the year, right? At least that’s what
twenty-year-old Ginny Bailey’s grandmother always told her, and Ginny believed
it until Grama died. She even put on a brave face the following two
Christmases, carrying on Grama’s traditions and decorating her house and café
with Grama’s favorite decorations.
But Ginny can’t pretend any longer. When she finds out she’s going to be alone for the holidays this year, her Christmas spirit goes out the window, along with her luck. Everything that can go wrong does, and Ginny just wants to spend the holidays hiding under the covers...until Dean Riley comes back into her life. With their shared past, old feelings begin to resurface almost immediately, and Ginny thinks Dean might just be the Christmas miracle she’s been waiting for to help her remember why Christmas really is the most wonderful time of the year.

ReplyDeleteI have not read this yet, but I think the excerpt and review are very well written. How can you not love a book that has something to do with romance and Christmas? I can't.
