Home for Christmas: A Later-in-life Small Town Rom-com by Emma Rosen
The storm trapped her. The furniture maker rescued her. The terrier had other plans.

At forty-two, travel nurse Kate Sullivan thought she was done with Christmas, small towns, and staying anywhere longer than three months. Then a December blizzard stranded her on Owen Nash's mountain, all quiet strength, sad eyes, and a father with Parkinson's he's trying to keep safe.

He's a widowed furniture maker caring for his dad. She's running from a grief that won't let go. Neither of them does temporary, except she leaves in three days and he's learned not to hope.

But between decorating a tree that makes her cry, adopting an old grey terrier nobody else wanted, and late-night workshop conversations that crack them both wide open, Kate starts to remember what home feels like. Owen starts to believe he's allowed to want more than survival.

He designs beautiful furniture for other people and leaves his own life half-finished. She heals strangers and runs from anything that might hurt. Together, they might just build something worth staying for.

A tender, hopeful holiday romance about second chances, found family, and coming home, not just for Christmas, but for good.
