Sarah Bakker has spent years getting over her love for her brother's best friend, Michael Thomas. What started out as a school-girl crush had deepened into much more-or at least, she thought so before he headed off to war. And when he went MIA, Sarah thought her heart would never heal.
When her best friend persuades her to go skiing, Sarah is pleasantly surprised to run into their old classmate, Lucas Williams. As Sarah begins to spend time with Lucas, she begins to feel that she can pick up the pieces of her heart and start over again.
But when Michael Thomas is found alive and returns home, Sarah is thrown together with him to help prepare for the town's annual Christmas pageant, and she realizes she has to make a decision: allow herself to fall in love with a man without baggage who loves her or take a chance on the man she has loved all her life but who may not be able to love her back.
Perhaps Sarah will finally find the love she longs for-even if it's only in her dreams.
