Last summer's secret becomes this Christmas's sweetest surprise.
Six months ago, Eloise had a one-night stand with a charming stranger and never expected to see him again—especially after sneaking out without so much as a goodbye. Now, with Christmas around the corner, last summer’s secret is about to surface in the most unexpected way.
The holiday season is meant to be the most wonderful time of the year, but for Dr. Eloise Parker, it's overshadowed by the demands of her residency and a relationship maintained more for her parents' sake than her own happiness. Her true passion, baking, remains a sidelined dream.
She's looking forward to a low-key Christmas in the charming town of Maple Hollow with her best friend, Susie. But her plans take a surprising turn when she comes face to face with Trevor Hall—Susie's brother and her one-night stand.
Trevor, anticipating a serene holiday before his nomadic adventures, finds his plans thrown into disarray by Eloise's arrival. Their brief, fiery past encounter left an indelible mark, reigniting a mix of old emotions and unanswered questions.
Through Eloise and Trevor's alternating perspectives, this story delicately weaves together the threads of personal growth and the enduring magic of the holiday season, reminding us that sometimes the greatest gifts are the ones we never anticipated.
She was in pursuit of love. He had closed the door on it.
Conformist Emma Clark is unsatisfied with her life. She hasn’t written in years and feels trapped in the same humdrum routine with her three best friends from college. She wants something new, but she doesn’t know how to break free from her predictable existence.
When she meets Danny Walkins, an enigmatic businessman, Emma is pulled along on a new adventure. There’s only one problem: Danny is going through a nasty divorce and there’s only one person he’s looking out for. Himself.
They quickly become friends as Danny inspires Emma to face the blank page again, and she helps him restore his farmhouse. But when love blooms, they both have to ask, what are they willing to give up for the sake of love?
Jen Reed is afraid of commitment and has managed to push away the man she loves. Feeling that he's better off without her, she's bent on getting over him no matter what. To Jen, this means going on multiple dates until Brian is erased from her heart. But it's not working. Therefore, she agrees to participate in the ultimate distraction: a destination wedding in Hawaii. However, fate has other plans.
Brian Hicks is giving his college-relationship another go but for all the wrong reasons. With a broken heart and regret behind him, he’s determined to get over the woman he still loves. To Brian, that means focusing on work, pleasing his new girlfriend, and avoiding his ex-girlfriend, Jen, as much as possible. Therefore, the last thing he wanted was a week-long vacation trapped with both his new girlfriend and the one he can't get over.
A surprise reunion at a destination wedding in Hawaii will alter the course of Jen and Brian's lives, challenging deeply held beliefs about each other and, ultimately, themselves. As they try to move on with their separate lives, reminders of their past relationship begin to surface until it explodes into a breathtaking event.
