Holiday Heros
Three former Navy SEALs come together to restore an outdated resort.
Asher Kincaid, a wounded former Navy SEAL, is not the man he used to be, and he doesn't plan to stay long in Christmas Town, Maine. He'll check out his family's rundown ski resort then put it up for sale. He'll be gone by Thanksgiving. But instead, Ash decides to renovate the property--and soon clashes with pretty Jill Morgan, a widowed kindergarten teacher who lost her husband at Blue Spruce Mountain.
Jill would rather see the resort burn to the ground. Maybe then she could be free of her poignant memories. But as the renovations continue in spite of her objections, and Blue Spruce comes back to life with the help of Ash's two friends, she can't deny her new feelings for him. Jill didn't expect to find love again--certainly not in this place--but will she and Ash both have something to celebrate on Thanksgiving Day? |
The kitchen heats up when resort manager Gabi Fortier goes toe-to-toe with chef Simon Tucker.

Emily Hayes tucked Christmas Town in her past and never intended to return. But her brother's New Year’s Day wedding has brought Emily home.
Her plans are simple: one week of rest from her hectic life as an ER nurse in some of the nation’s busiest cities. One week of cursory family time with her brother and his soon-to-be extended family. One week to avoid any walks down memory lane. She’d survived her childhood, surely seven days in Christmas Town wouldn’t touch her heart. But Emily never prepared for the power of her five year old nephew or the impact of former Navy Seal, Zach Evans. Emily never prepped herself for her heart wanting to step out of lock down and open up, not to Christmas Town and certainly not to a man she’d only just met. And staying in Christmas Town was never part of the plan. It’s a countdown to her departure versus a countdown to love. Now Zach needs to convince Emily to listen to her heart before the clock runs out. |
