Heaven, Mississippi, is about to get a little hotter this holiday season, and not even a sprinkle of holiday magic can save this town from finding out well-kept secrets.
Ford Ashcroft, once the town’s golden-boy college quarterback, is back home, trading his football helmet for a coach’s whistle after an injury forced him into early retirement. Unfortunately, the athletic director has about as much faith in his coaching abilities as Ford has in his own future.
Darby Kate Buckley has enough problems of her own. At thirty-seven, she’s nursing a broken heart, running a clothing boutique during the most wonderful and busiest time of year, and starting a new secret business. Coming from the town’s most respected family, the last thing she needs is to be caught with an eleven-years-younger former football star. Especially when their first encounter gives Ford ammunition to blow her carefully guarded secret all the way to the North Pole.
With holiday gossip running around town faster than the team’s wide receiver, Ford proposes a little white lie. She’ll pretend to be his girlfriend long enough to convince the athletic director he’s worth keeping around, and he’ll take her secret to the grave. It’s a heaven-sent arrangement.
But between tree lightings, inconvenient chemistry on and off the field, and a fake relationship that feels suspiciously real, these two opposites are discovering that age is just a number and love doesn’t always follow the playbook.
Christmas is fast approaching and their little arrangement is headed for its expiration date. Ford and Darby Kate must decide if what started as a heavenly holiday hoax is worth risking their hearts for. Because when the truth comes out, they might be permanently on the naughty list.
Heaven Sent is a swoony, laugh-out-loud older woman, younger man rom-com featuring the town’s golden boy quarterback with something to prove, a sweet but spicy heroine with a secret to guard, and a chorus of hilarious side characters who sprinkle their heavenly charm. This opposites attract, fake relationship over the holidays proves that sometimes love just needs a little divine intervention. Sweet & spicy, funny, and utterly satisfying, it delivers a happily ever after that feels positively heaven sent.
