A Valley Ridge Christmas — Holly Jacobs

The whole town's in on this Christmas secret!

Maeve Buchanan isn't the jealous type. But with another Valley Ridge wedding approaching, she's feeling a twinge of envy. Everyone seems to be finding "it" -- except her. Not that romance is high on her priority list! Inspired by the arrival of a homeless family one snowy night, Maeve -- Valley Ridge's own George Bailey -- is determined to give them a permanent home by Christmas.

To make this surprise happen, fiercely independent Maeve is going to need a lot of help. Particularly from the irritating newcomer Aaron Holder, who thinks Maeve is just too good to be true and suspects her motives. Working together won't be easy. But it'll be worth it…in so many ways!
