Paperback FICTION / Romance / Holiday * Fans of Carley Fortune, Laurie Gilmore, and Rachel Hanna will love New York Times bestselling author RaeAnne Thayne s joyful new grumpy-sunshine romance with a twist about a single mom struggling to keep custody of her daughter and to live through her ex-husband's upcoming wedding and the pilot who comes to town for the holidays to care for his niece—and finds two amazing reasons to stay in this story of found family, the power of love, and the magic of the holidays. Christmas in Shelter Springs is full of magic. But for divorced single mom Holly Goodwin Moore, that magic can be hard to come by. Of course, she'll do anything to make the holidays amazing for her beautiful, spirited 5-year old daughter Lydia who has Down's Syndrome. Her ex-husband isn't in the picture. He walked away when Lydia was a toddler because he couldn't handle her special needs. He's since moved away and his new girlfriend is expecting a baby. Holly won't lie—it hurts, especially at the holidays, even though she's certain they're both better off without him. And Holly has her daughter and the most wonderful, big, loving, and supportive family ever—she doesn't need anything more. So when mysterious pilot Ryan Caldwell blows into town, she's intrigued. Rumor has it that a crash injury has likely curtailed his career as a Navy flight instructor and he s back in town to spend the holiday with his sister and his estranged dad. But the last thing Holly needs is any drama or any heartbreak and so she steers clear. But it's the season for love and light, for second chances and new beginnings, and little Lydia will help Holly see that being bold and risking her heart is the only way to live--especially at Christmas.
