Book Description
Is it too late to want what he gave up decades ago—or is this second chance the greatest Christmas gift not under the tree? Prodigal son Matt Marshall has finally found his way home this Christmas—temporarily. He couldn’t leave his family in a lurch when the ranch’s cattle is threatened. And with his veterinary license practically in hand, he needs the opportunity to work with one of the country’s keenest practitioners. Established vet Tessa Young turns out to be the perfect partner. She not only devises a genius solution, she pulls off the help they need by turning a community barn-raising into a holiday celebration. There’s just one flaw in this relationship: she’s making Matt rethink his plans to hit the road again. Can he live with the memories lingering around the ranch? And while a life with the sexy cowboy sends tingles down her spine, Tessa would need to give up her greatest promise to her grandfather to stay with Matt. It will take more than listening to their hearts—they have to trust the miracle taking place this December.

Kelly Jones, author of Unusual Chickens for the Exceptional Poultry Farmer, delivers a funny, take-charge heroine kids will love. Fiona may have problems, but she's no damsel in distress. She'd rather be the one wielding the wand in the story: she wants to be the fairy godperson. So when her mom sends her off to stay with relatives in a place called Cold Hope for the summer, Fiona decides it's time to start training for the role. And wow, do these people need help! Aunt Becky's bakery is failing, Great-uncle Timothy draws but never speaks, and Great-Aunt Alta is the gloomiest, doomiest woman she's ever met. But helping people in the real world isn't as easy as it sounds in fairy tales. Change is messy. What if she's actually making things worse? Still, with practice (and some deep breaths), Fiona will discover that sometimes messy is okay. Sometimes things do get worse before they get better. And sometimes trying to help fix other people's problems can help you work on your own...
