Description
A second chance, heartwarming, Christmas story.
The world may be celebrating the end of WWII in 1945, but that doesn’t mean everything is merry and bright. Many are healing from their physical wounds as well as the unseen emotional devastation.
Rosie Bessler works all-hours to fill holiday orders while navigating life with her ex-soldier husband -- turned stranger. With life’s realities and their ongoing debate over having children, keeping their woodworking business afloat, and finding financial security their marriage is anything but bliss.
Wounded warrior, Victor Bessler longs for a new beginning so he can forget his past. He returns to Rosie and the once peaceful Sugar Maple only to find that the effects of war have reached far beyond Europe. . His search for peace and love seems unattainable until an orphaned boy and his wife show him the true meaning of Christmas.
Advance Praise
"I think your readers are going to love this one! It's my favorite of your books. I loved seeing the backstory of a familiar character, but I also just liked the twist of the story being about an already married couple falling back in love/learning to trust each other, and I really loved seeing them fall in love with the kids and the family they were unexpectedly growing. It's a perfect heartwarming story for Christmastime. ❤ And I think it'll make Davey all the more endearing when we see him in the remaining Sugar Maple books. I also really liked that you included a recipe that ties into the story, and added discussion questions as well. Very well done, all around!" ~ Beta Reader
