The rustic beauty of a country Christmas fills the
Simple Gifts crafts shop, while the Amish residents of
Willow Ridge pull together in uncertain times—and in the
face of an unexpected homecoming.
Nora Hooley’s shop is abuzz with preparations for the
holiday open house, and Rosalyn Riehl is handcrafting
wreaths from evergreen boughs, pinecones, and other natural
materials. The work is a welcome diversion for the only
unmarried daughter of Cornelius Riehl: her gruff dat
has been receiving envelopes marked Past Due, leaving
dutiful Rosalyn to manage the household’s inexplicably
shrinking budget. Then another distraction swaggers into
Simple Gifts—blue-jeaned and leather-jacketed, with a
reputation that precedes him.
Marcus Hooley hightailed it to Willow Ridge on a wing and a
prayer—not that he’s the praying type. He rejected his Amish
roots long ago. But behind the bad-boy attitude is a gifted
horse trainer who’s counting on some bent-but-not-broken
family ties to throw him a lifeline. He can’t erase his
past, but a sparking attraction with strong, spirited
Rosalyn holds the promise of a second chance . . . and of
shedding light on shadowy secrets to build a bright tomorrow.
