Dreaming of Mistletoe (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781963087185)

*Set in the same fictional town of Winterwood as the Holiday Countdown Series*

When Tess Wilcox loses her job, her apartment, and her boyfriend in one spectacularly awful day, she has nowhere left to go but home-back to Winterwood, the rural small town she once couldn't wait to escape.

But Winterwood remembers her... and so do the people she hurt when she walked away without looking back. Returning means facing everything she left behind, including her first love-Austin Hale. Austin has every reason to keep his distance, yet the holiday season keeps pulling them together, one unexpected moment at a time.

As twinkling lights glow over Main Street and fresh snow blankets the town, Tess is more certain than ever she doesn't belong in Winterwood-yet little by little, the town she tried to escape starts to feel like home. Each relationship mended, each bridge rebuilt, instills a deeper sense of belonging...but not everyone is quick to forgive. Will she be able to overcome the past?

Perfect for readers who love small-town charm, emotional redemption arcs, cozy winter nights, and the true meaning of Christmas.

*This book is a stand-alone novella with a happily-ever-after
