This USA Today bestselling author invites you to the delightful small town of Sweetwater Springs where the magic of Christmas brings to strangers together in this "story you won't forget" (RaeAnne Thayne, New York Times bestselling author).

Christmas is coming to the North Carolina mountains, and the air is fresh and crisp and filled with promise. After the devastating loss of her job in the big city, the small town of Sweetwater Springs feels like heaven to Kaitlyn Russo. She's inherited her grandparents' charming (if a little rundown) bed and breakfast, and it's just the new lease on life she needs. Only "heaven" comes with a catch-and a handsome and completely infuriating one at that. 

After what he hopes will be a quick trip, Mitch Hargrove wants nothing more than to put his hometown in the rearview mirror. But his plans get derailed when he learns he's now half-owner of the Sweetwater B&B. The fact that he's given only two months to make the inn a success is a huge problem, but it's his pretty-and incredibly headstrong-partner who's the real challenge. With the holiday fast approaching and a grand re-opening looming, will Mitch keep running from the ghosts of Christmas past . . . or will he realize the true gift he's been given? 

Includes the bonus short story "Midnight Clear" by Hope Ramsay!

Its barely into autumn and I just couldn't help myself. I was going to wait being that its a christmasy book but the holiday season seems to be rapidly approaching and I might end up getting swamped. Too swamped to pick up a good book to read. Also release day is today. These are my excuses as to why I picked up this book now. After reading this book I don't regret it. I really enjoyed this book and liked it so much I pretty much spent my whole day watching it. Trust me when I say that its was hard to put down. I liked the characters and getting to know them and their backgrounds. I thought it was interesting getting to know their families and seeing different reactions to different situations. I enjoyed hearing about the guests that stayed at the B&B and how different they were. Then there was a bit of a mystery when there was plenty of break-ins in the book and wondering who was behind it and it was interesting getting to see how it was handled. I was curious to see if this person who strike next possibly at the B&B to shake things up. I loved that bit of romance that was going on with the main characters and loved that this book managed to remain clean. Overall a pretty great book I really enjoyed it.
