When a freak accident at her father’s hardware store derails their plans, Avery must find a way to spend Christmas with them. As a big fan of Christmas, Avery knew this wouldn’t do. She needed to see her family. But, there was one thing standing in the way of her taking time off… The chance for a big promotion at work. As luck would have it, Avery’s newest client sends her to the one place she hasn’t seen in twelve years - The Mistletoe Lodge. With her client willing to do anything for the property, they enlist Avery to sweet-talk the owners into selling. When Avery said goodbye to her charming hometown, she also said goodbye to a man she vowed never to see again. After a bumpy flight home, fate intervened, and she came face-to-face with ex-boyfriend Ryder Carlisle. Ryder’s family has owned the picturesque Mistletoe Lodge for generations. Nestled on the outskirts of Frisco, Colorado, the lodge is on the verge of shutting down for good, despite turning a profit last year. Ryder is determined to do all he can to keep the lodge’s doors open. With plans of expansion already in motion, Ryder knows it will take a miracle to keep a corporate hotel chain from buying up his beloved lodge. He never imagined they’d sent the one person he couldn’t say “no” to. Fall in love with Mistletoe Lodge this holiday season as Avery and Ryder find a way to put the past behind them in this feel-good second-chance romance. less
