She hasn’t been in love in ten years, but she’s about to get back in the saddle.

'Swoony Christmas cowboy magic! This second chance love story crackles with chemistry and holiday cheer.'

—Annabel Monaghan, bestselling author of Summer Romance

With the holidays around the corner and her father recently imprisoned for financial fraud, disgraced journalist Emory Oakes doesn’t know where to turn. She’s only certain of one thing: she needs to get away.

Fate takes the wheel, leaving her stranded in snowy Evergreen, the picturesque town where she spent her happiest Christmas as a teen – and chronicled every moment in her journal as she fell in love with handsome local, Tate Wilder, at his family’s idyllic horse ranch – until it all went wrong.

Emory isn’t ready to face Tate, but kismet and Christmas magic have other ideas. As the love they’ve denied for a decade rekindles, the betrayals that kept them apart resurface and Emory's family scandal reaches the small town. Even still, Tate Wilder and his ranch feel more like home than anywhere ever has.

Will Emory and Tate’s alchemy fizzle, or will their Christmas wishes come true?
