Holly and Hometown Hearts
(2025)(The third book in the Evergreen Falls series)
A Story by Shayla Sullivan
Ryleigh Miller didn’t plan to get stranded in a postcard-perfect Vermont town—or to face-plant into a snowbank in front of the local bookstore owner. But that’s what happens when your GPS gives up and fate decides you need rescuing by a man with kind eyes and a killer coffee recipe.
All she wants is to settle her late aunt’s estate, survive thirty days of small-town living, and get back to her real life as a globe-trotting travel writer. But Evergreen Falls has other plans—including Alexander Turner, the grumpy-sweet bookseller who keeps showing up with caffeine, comfort, and the kind of quiet steadiness she’s never known.
As twinkle lights go up and the Christmas Festival draws near, Ryleigh starts to wonder if home isn’t a place you find on a map—it’s a person who makes you want to stay. Because in Evergreen Falls, love stories don’t happen by accident. They happen when you stop running long enough to be found.
