She lost her husband years ago. Now, she may lose the one person-and the one place-that still holds his memory.
Amelia Hennipen has spent years quietly mourning her beloved husband, Simon. But grief doesn't offer rest-not when the past lingers in every room of Hennipen House, and not while caring for Simon's aging grandmother, Henny, whose mind is slowly slipping away.
This Thanksgiving, new neighbors Nathan Shaw and his young nephew, bring fresh laughter and the warm aromas of home-cooked meals back into the house. For the first time in years, Hennipen House feels alive. Plans for a memorable Christmas are underway... until Henny's daughter arrives with news that will break her promise and change everything.
What is best for Henny? Amelia doesn't know for sure, but she does know this will break the promise they made to Henny. Amelia must decide: will she walk away from the home and the increasingly difficult obligations to Henny, the woman who is more like her mother than her own? Or will she fight for one more Christmas at Hennipen House, and maybe even a chance at more to come?
A heartwarming holiday novella about love, memory, and the quiet courage it takes to choose the people who matter most.
