December comes to quaint Hearts Bend, Tennessee, with a blanket of white and the glitter of Christmas lights.
For JoJo Castle there is no place like home. Her onetime love of adventure ended when her life in the big city came crashing down. Now that she’s home, she never wants to leave again.
Country music sensation Buck Mathews has charmed the world with his smile and his music. However, news of his mother’s illness brought him home to Hearts Bend for the holiday season.
Working with her cousin Haley in The Wedding Shop, JoJo has no aspirations of love. But when her high school crush returns to town, her buried feelings surface.
Busy with his career, Buck hasn’t had time for family and friends, much less love. Seeing JoJo in The Wedding Shop reminds him there are things more important than his career.
But JoJo and Buck have opposing life goals, and there’s no middle ground. Can love, especially the kind that touches hearts at Christmas, overcome her fears and his quest for greatness?
With the help of a very special wedding dress, there just might a Christmas miracle.

I enjoyed this Christmas novella.  It is a sweet, sentimental story that put me in the Christmas spirit. Two people with empty hearts find love and happiness in this charming Christian romance and prove that magical things can happen at Christmas.

 

Jo Jo and Buck couldn’t wait to leave Hearts Bend, Tennessee to find fame and fortune.  After ten years, they both realize life is full of compromises and they appreciate their small town and all the people in it. I found Jo Jo and Buck easy to like and loved this feel good Christmas story.
