Magic of Winter: A Celtic Legends Novel (Celtic Legends Collection #3)

Perfect for the holidays! In the harsh winter of the Scottish Highlands, where love and past history are equally fierce, burning away old hurts lets the future bloom its brightest. Award-winning author Martina Boone spins a beautiful, heartwarming, and moving standalone novel of love, loss, hope, redemption, family, small-towns, and big ambitions set in the magical landscape of the Celtic Legends Collection.

Cait Fletcher was always second-string in her father’s eyes, unable to compete with her perfect older brother. Her father’s view of Cait only deteriorated when she fell for the local “bad boy” at the age of nine, and her love for Brice MacLaren never once wavered until the day he betrayed her a few months before their wedding. But their tiny glen in the Scottish Highlands full of secrets, opinionated neighbors, wandering sheep, and countless old traditions left no place to for Cait to escape either her past or her mistakes. She moved away—until her father’s unexpected illness gave her no choice but to return for the winter holidays.

Home again, Cait still loves the village of Balwhither as much as she hates it, and she despises the fact that just the sight of Brice can has never stopped making her heart twist and her breath come faster. But when she discovers that her father has given up not only on the family-run Library and Tea Room but also on the treatment for his cancer, she must put her own emotions and fears aside. Brice claims he’s changed, and he’s certainly been good to her father since she left. Now can she trust him enough to work with him as she fights to give her father something meaningful to live for?

A timeless story of love, passion, fathers and daughters, heroic women, men in kilts, and heartwarming traditions that will charm new readers and fans of the Celtic Legends Collection alike. Perfect for those who love Nora Roberts, Susan Mallery, Susan Wiggs, Sarah Addison Allen, and Diana Gabaldon.
