White Pine Island Stories, book 14

Decorating a perfect holiday…

Holly Holt believes everything can be beautiful, and she’s built a business out of crafting an online lifestyle brand. She can make a perfect pie, arrange flowers, and walk her online followers through amazing craft projects. Being the holiday decorator in residence for the month of December at the Grand Hotel is an opportunity she can’t resist. Her life is perfect, except for the fact that she’s facing another Christmas alone.

Warren Pierce gives his heart to his young daughters, trying desperately to be everything to them after their mother—pretty but shallow—walks out. He’s rebuilding his life with a new home and career, and his visit to White Pine Island where he grew up is a perfect starting point. With his brother’s holiday wedding at the Grand Hotel, Warren relishes giving his daughters the magical island Christmas they deserve after several years of upheaval and heartache.

Holly has plenty of joy and sparkle in her heart, but a brooding single dad resists her charms. It’s the season of miracles, though, and Warren never expects to meet a woman who will prove to him that someone can be beautiful on the outside and the inside—if he’s brave enough to trust and love again.

Matchmaking turns magical…

Corinne Carter’s sister never gives up on trying to find her a perfect match, and Corinne hates it. When her sister Cathy invites her along for a Christmas vacation at the Grand Hotel, though, Corinne doesn’t see the matchmaking scheme coming. She’s lured by the promise of a luxury vacation and by getting to meet her favorite home improvement influencer who’s in residence at the hotel for the holidays. However, the White Pine Island ferry doesn’t even reach the island dock when Corinne discovers she’s been set up.

Mark Hall doesn’t want a take a chance on love and sure as heck doesn’t invite his sister Nora’s attempts at matchmaking, but he’s blindsided by an invitation to spend the holidays with his sister and her husband at the Grand Hotel. When he discovers it’s a setup between his sister Nora and her best friend Cathy, he almost boards a boat back to the mainland. Except this setup involves a luxury vacation and he can’t help noticing that Corinne is far more interesting and appealing than the usual dates his sister lures him into.

When Mark and Corinne decide to team up to teach their meddling sisters a lesson about staying out of their lives, they discover that the holidays hold unexpected magic for them under the mistletoe at the Grand Hotel.
