The Christmas Inheritance: A Clean Small Town Christmas Romance (The Evergreen Inn Christmas Collection #1)

A crumbling Victorian inn. A thirty day deadline. And the one man who makes her question everything.

Emma Winters left Pine Haven fourteen years ago and never looked back. Now a successful Denver lawyer, she returns only to settle her grandmother's estate and sell the dilapidated Evergreen Inn to developers. But her grandmother's will contains a Emma must stay for thirty consecutive days, actively restore the inn, and host the legendary Christmas Eve party, or lose everything.

With the building literally falling apart and only three weeks until Christmas, Emma has no choice but to accept help from Jack Sullivan, the local contractor who's been maintaining the property. Jack loved Miss Lillian like family and he's not about to let Emma destroy her legacy. He agrees to help with one Emma has to actually work, not just write checks from her corporate world.

Working side by side proves challenging when sparks fly between the buttoned up lawyer and the steady, small town contractor. Emma discovers that the grandmother she thought she knew had touched countless lives, that the town she couldn't wait to escape feels more like home than her sterile Denver apartment, and that Jack Sullivan is far more than she ever noticed in high school.

As the inn slowly transforms and the community rallies to help, Emma must decide what she truly wants. Her high powered career and the partnership she's worked years to achieve? Or a new life in Pine Haven with a man who sees her for who she really is, not just what she's accomplished?

When her old firm makes an offer she can't refuse and Jack's own wounds from being left behind resurface, Emma faces the hardest choice of her life. Will she run back to the safety of her old life, or will she take a chance on the messy, beautiful, terrifying possibility of home?
