Lacey Murdock's life screeches to a halt when she gets stranded in small town Larkspur for Christmas. Thankfully, the innkeeper is a handsome and sweet man who makes for a welcome distraction from the life she left in Minneapolis. In Larkspur, she rediscovers her passion for creating and realizes what she's been missing since her Mom died. But the quick attachment she forms to this town and these people have her wondering if she could ever be happy anywhere else. Will she take the leap and make a move, or will she leave behind her chance at real love? The last thing Will Christiansen expected for Christmas was a beautiful wayward traveler who instantly charms anyone who meets her. Her eagerness to help his sister is just the first way she wins him over, and before he knows it, he's telling her his dreams of leaving the inn to become a restaurant owner. But following his dream means saying no to his family, who depend on him for everything. He tries not to fall, but he can't help wishing Lacey could be a permanent fixture in his world. Will he find the courage to take charge of his own life or will he continue his yes man ways?
