Blurb

Life couldn’t be more upbeat for Maddy, a librarian and enthusiast of books, fall, and Christmas. Her career blossoming, her future is as bright as the coming festive season.

Dustin, looking for a fresh start, figures a quaint little town like Star Creek is the perfect place to leave behind his old life. Newly hired as lead farm hand at Maple Acres, he’s determined to focus on his work and keep a low profile.

When Maddy’s mom cooks up a plan to bring back an old tradition of Christmas at the Farm, Maddy is roped into helping—and working closely with their new hired hand. From artisan markets, to festive trail rides, to an old-fashioned barn dance, this season is brimming.

Thrown together, Maddy and Dustin become fast friends. Despite the secrets of his past and his efforts to become attached to no one, Dustin is drawn to Maddy and her family. Maddy rediscovers her love for Christmas at the Farm and finds joy in Dustin’s company.

Autumn is a time of change, and the Maple Acres family might be the change Dustin seeks. What will it take to open his heart to the possibilities? Will this season of hope help them mend the old pieces and embrace the new?
