She came home for Christmas. She didn’t expect her past to be waiting.
Linnea Olsen never planned to return to Marietta for good. But when her parents need help saving the family orchard and cider business, she packs up her life and moves home with her daughters—just in time for Christmas. Determined to rebuild a future, she throws herself into planning a holiday charity concert… then quickly realizes she’s taken on more than she can handle.
Nat Hathaway, a successful singer-songwriter burned out from life on the road, slips back into Marietta hoping for peace, quiet, and a fresh start on his next album. What he doesn’t expect is to run straight into his high school sweetheart—or to be volunteered as her co-organizer for a Christmas concert he never agreed to run.
As snow falls and rehearsals begin, old feelings spark back to life. Nat is drawn to the warmth Linnea has built for her girls. Linnea is tempted by the man Nat has become—but she can’t risk her daughters’ hearts on a romance destined to end when the holidays do.
When the season ends, will Nat leave Marietta behind again—or choose the only home that’s ever felt right?
