A novel by

 
 
A cowboy, a Christmas suit, and a single mom who never expected her fresh start to include falling for the town Santa.

Jacob Whitley never planned on donning the red suit and white beard, but when the Shooting Star Canyon Christmas Festival needs a last-minute Santa, he steps up grudgingly. What he doesn’t expect is the new event coordinator to be Rachel Morgan, the girl he used to chase around the ranch as a boy. Now she’s all grown up, and she’s not alone.

Widowed and starting over with her young daughter, Rachel is determined to make this Christmas magical, even if she has to wrangle a grumpy cowboy into holiday cheer. But when their playful bickering turns into something more tender, and Jacob finds himself helping her decorate cookies and tuck her little girl into bed, he starts to wonder if maybe God had a plan for him all along.

A plan for healing. For hope. For home.

A heartwarming Christmas romance about second chances, small-town faith, and discovering joy in the most unexpected places.
