In the depths of winter, Christmas calls to weary travelers and leads lonely hearts home.

Jocelyn Taylor is no stranger to a weary heart. Having fallen in love much too young with her sister’s old high school boyfriend has left her with mixed emotions about the possibility of true love. Now successful and the manager of a jewelry shop, Jocelyn spends her days dreaming of the perfect man and the perfect ring to match.

Caden Scott is less than thrilled at the thought of spending the holidays back home where memories of his youth still haunt him. Not interested in the kitschy hometown feel of a town known for Christmas, Caden still dwells on the thought of seeing his old high school love again. His time abroad serving his country has changed him in many ways, but could it have altered his heart as well?

As the winds of change bring more than just the magic of the holiday season, can two hearts let go of the past to find new romance? Or will true love pass them by? In the small town of Christmas Cove, the reason for the season may just be the spark they need to make this the best Christmas yet.

VOLUME TWO: FINDING LOVE IN CHRISTMAS COVE


"Are you sure you don't want to come over tonight?" Jocelyn asked Kiki Long after the Christmas Eve service. They both sang in the church choir together and had been friends for years. "After all, it's Christmas Eve."


Kiki shook her head as she slid her purse over her arm. "No, I don't want to intrude." Jocelyn and Caden had a rough road getting together and she and her sister were actually getting along now. Kiki didn't want to spoil anything for them. Jocelyn needed this holiday with her family. "Besides, I don't want to be a third wheel."


"Yeah, right." Jocelyn scoffed. "Caden and I would love to have you, and so would Malory. Caden thinks the world of you, and his parents are coming over, too."
