Three sisters. One snow-covered inn. And a Christmas that could change everything.

Freshly divorced and newly unemployed, Leah Merriman has one plan: liquidate her late mother's Vermont bed-and-breakfast and start over somewhere—anywhere''else. The last thing she expects to find is a rugged contractor already hammering away at the roof... or the flicker of warmth she thought she’d lost for good.

When her two sisters arrive with secrets and heartbreak of their own, the Merriman women are pulled back into the laughter, chaos, and love that once filled every room of the inn. Together they’ll have to mend broken boards, old wounds, and the walls they’ve built around their hearts.

With only two weeks until the town's Christmas Home Tour and a buyer ready to make an offer, Leah must choose: sell the inn and escape her past, or risk her heart on the place—and the man—she never planned to fall for.

Heartfelt, funny, and full of small-town charm,
The Merry Inn is a story about second chances, sisterhood, and the quiet magic of coming home. It's the perfect cozy escape for fans of Debbie Macomber, Nancy Thayer, and RaeAnne Thayne.

"Like a Hallmark movie in book form!"
