"Sheer delight, filled with humor, warmth and heart... I loved everything about it." --New York Times bestselling author RaeAnne Thayne on The Magnolia Sisters

Spend the holidays in Magnolia, North Carolina, where two lonely hearts find exactly what they need for Christmas.

Angi Guilardi needs a man for Christmas--at least, according to her mother. What she really needs is to grow her fledgling catering business. Partnering with Magnolia's Wildflower Inn holds promise, but when her mother falls ill, Angi's pulled back to the responsibility of the family restaurant. While she balances work and her eight-year-old son, romance is the last thing on her mind...until Angi runs into Gabriel Carlyle.

Back in town to help his grandmother at her flower shop, Gabriel has no plans to stick around Magnolia, especially after he bumps into one of his childhood bullies. Sure, Angi's all grown up and gorgeous now, and when they find themselves under the mistletoe, their chemistry is undeniable. But it'll take more than a Christmas miracle for Angi to break through the defenses of Gabriel's well-guarded heart and find a love built to last.

Includes a Bonus Novella!
The magic of Christmas may be what helps a down-to-earth schoolteacher and a good-time firefighter see each other in a new light just in time for the holidays, in Michelle Major's A Carolina Christmas.
