Blessings on State Street

"Grieving widow Abigail Preston wants nothing to do with Christmas this year. When she discovers her late husband owned a waterfront home in the quaint, cozy community of Blessings Bay, she figures it's the perfect holiday hideout. Except, there's one problem: An unexpected--and distractingly handsome--houseguest. After a medical discharge and a broken engagement, former US Air Force pilot Logan Matthews accepts the only job he can get--caretaker of his friend's investment property in a quiet, hole-in-the-wall town. The confirmed bachelor has zero interest in retiring his reclusive ways... until a beautiful, Taser-toting intruder barges into his life--and his home--with plans to stick around until after the new year. The unlikely roommates agree to coexist under two conditions: stay out of each other's way and absolutely, under no circumstances, celebrate Christmas. When the magic of the season meddles with their Scrooge-like plan, the terms of their agreement prove easier said than done. Will the town's infectious Christmas spirit--and a chance encounter with a mysterious boy named Max--melt their hardened hearts? Or are some wounds too deep--and too closely guarded--to heal?"--Back cover.
