In a charming Maine seaside town, a single mother longs
to create a memorable Christmas for her two daughters—and
receives a chance to make her own wishes come true . . . At first glance, Nell King’s cozy home in Yorktide seems a
step down from the impeccably decorated Boston house she
shared with her husband. But in the six years since he
abruptly left to marry another woman, Nell and her
almost-grown daughters have found real happiness here. Now,
faced with what may be their last Christmas together, Nell
feels anxious. She gave up her own ambitions when she
married. With the daily obligations of motherhood coming to
an end, what role is left for her to fill? Twenty-one-year-old Molly worries about sacrificing her
independence the way her mother did. Should she stay in
Maine with her dependable boyfriend, or move to the city and
prove herself? Felicity, meanwhile, is torn between loyalty
to Nell and wanting to spend time with her glamorous
stepmother. Nell is eager to make this holiday
picture-perfect. But there’s a complication—and an
opportunity . . . Nell’s first love, now a successful novelist, is in town for
a book signing. As the two rekindle their friendship, Nell
confronts the choices she once made in the name of
stability. And as the days unfold with revelations and
unexpected gifts, this Christmas promises to herald a bright
new beginning.
