(This is the 2nd edition of book 1 featuring a new cover, total refresh inside, tidbits of new info sprinkled throughout, and a bonus epilogue.) Sophie Beck is riddled with anxiety as holiday season rolls around, carrying with her haunting memories of the past year. It was the first Christmas after the tragic death of her husband, and her children's father. It was also the second worst time of their lives, especially for Cam, their son on the autism spectrum. Wanting to show her kids Christmas can be fun again, her intentions are derailed when dashing military man, Liam James, appears in town seeking respite from traumas plaguing him. With a chip on his shoulder, he instantly shakes up the town and Sophie's wounded heart. Can a dog and a little Christmas magic bring happiness back into their lives, or will heartache follow Sophie's family to the quaint town they now call home?
