New Year's Resolution: One to Keep
Par šo e-grāmatu
It’s been two years since Sophie was dumped at the altar, and she’s scarred, but wiser. She has a career she loves, good friends, and a caring family. It should be more than enough, and she wants to vanquish the part of her that still craves something more.
This year, unable to bear one more “festive” get together where everyone gives her sad eyes and asks how she’s doing, she heads to River’s Sigh B & B, a picturesque spot she discovered online. It will be a New Year’s celebration for one, a place to unwind and kick off her new resolution: to embrace single life as a permanent choice.
Jesse Ales has found the perfect way to avoid the world this holiday season. He’ll be the caretaker at River’s Sigh B & B and enjoy a break from well-meaning friends who think he should be over his ex-wife. The whole place will be deserted, except for some eccentric old woman holidaying alone in the wilderness. Even after making her breakfast every day, he’ll have plenty of time to plan his new life: committed bachelorhood.
When chance throws Sophie and Jesse together in a pub, a night of alcohol, food, and laughter-infused lunacy almost leads to a one-night stand. They’re both shaken, but doubly resolved to remain single.
And then they meet again at River's Sigh and realize they’re about to spend a week alone together—twenty miles from their nearest neighbor. They’ll each have to face their worst fears: their own unacknowledged yearnings for a love that lasts.
Can love tempt them to commitment a second time around?
Maybe. If they’re brave enough . . .
Fans of heartwarming small-town contemporary romance, Christmas holiday romance, second chances, friends to lovers stories, and furry dog friends will fall in love with River’s Sigh B & B and never want to leave!

Ev Bishop believes in the power of fiction to transform our lives. We both lose ourselves—and find ourselves!—in a good story. The best of them entertain us, making us laugh, cry, rage, and/or happy sigh, but also reflect something emotionally true and provide insight into human experience.
Best known for her popular small town contemporary romance series, River’s Sigh B & B, of which One to Keep is part of, Ev hopes you’ll enjoy this cozy, wintery-wonderland standalone immensely—and that you’ll treat yourself to other romantic getaways with the rest of the series.
