About the Book
Stressed by a year of intense, ongoing problems,
McKenzie Forsberg decides to quit her high-powered job and move back to her
hometown. Determined to rebuild her life, Kenzie desperately needs the peace
and security she is sure will come from buying the home she grew up in. But
when she arrives in town, Kenzie discovers that a handsome widower, Jared
Rawlins, has already put an offer on the house.
However, he can only close the deal if he sells his own house by
Christmas Eve.
When Kenzie unexpectedly runs into a couple who
are considering buying Jared’s house, she unthinkingly gives them information
that changes their mind. Jared, who had been more than a little interested in
Kenzie, has second thoughts when he begins to believe Kenzie deliberately tried
to sabotage the sale of his home.
Despite his misgivings, and Kenzie’s own
concerns, sparks of attraction between Jared and Kenzie grow into something
more. Then, Kenzie makes a stunning discovery about her past. In that moment,
everything changes. Will the power of love be enough to bring Jared and Kenzie
together and allow them to find their happily ever after?
