Come home to Rivers End and fall in love with this sweet, second-chance Christmas romance. All Lindsay MacAllister wants it to make it home to Rivers End in time for her Uncle Isaac’s Christmas wedding. But the universe has other ideas. Lindsay is convinced that she’s on the naughty list this year, and that getting snowed in—with the one guy who managed to completely break her heart—is her punishment for the secrets she’s been keeping from her family. Noah Burke is happy to hop a plane to Hawaii with his foster brothers and avoid the holiday season altogether. But a snow storm brings the airport to a grinding halt, and throws the girl-next-door he’s never been able to forget directly into his path. Now Noah’s faced with a choice. Will he risk telling Lindsay he’s never gotten over her and try to convince her he deserves a second chance? Or will his troubled past come between them… again? ***Note from the author: This is a small town, second-chance, sweet holiday romance with a HEA and no cheating. There is the occasional use of strong language and while most of the ‘action’ takes place off screen, if you’re looking for ‘clean and wholesome’ this might not be for you. It can be read as a standalone, or you can enjoy it with the rest of the MacAllisters of Rivers End romance series (psssst… there’s a boxed set of the first 4 books!).1.
