About this ebook

There’s no place like Haven Point for the holidays, where the snow conspires to bring two wary hearts together for a Christmas to remember

It’s been two rough years since Andrea Montgomery lost her husband, and all she wants is for her children to enjoy their first Christmas in Haven Point. But then Andie’s friend asks a favor—to keep an eye on her brother, Sheriff Marshall Bailey, who’s recovering from a hit and run. Andie will do anything for Wyn, even park her own misgivings to check on her grouchy, wounded bear of a brother.

Marshall hates feeling defenseless and resents the protective impulses that Andie brings out in him. But when a blizzard forces them together for the holidays, something in Marshall begins to thaw. Andie’s gentle nature is a salve, and her kids’ excitement for the holidays makes him forget why he never wanted a family. If only he and Andie can admit what they really want—each other—their Christmas wishes might come true after all.

Ratings and reviews

I always love Raeanne Thayne's Christmas stories. I look forward to reading them every Christmas. This one was a little slow for me and the story seemed forced with less Holiday spirit. 2.5 to 3 stars compared to her other 4 star Christmas books.

I'm still basking in the glow of this book. The characters are still having conversations in my brain! That means it was a fantastic book because the people stay with you for awhile! I really think Haven Point is a real place and I want to drive to Idaho and visit! We met Andie Montgomery & her children in RaeAnne's previous book so I was anxious to read her story. I knew she would be a strong character but somewhat subdued because of all that had happened to her. If you haven't read the previous book (Wyn's story), it would be helpful to understand Andie's history but RaeAnne goes into her backstory so you could catch up. Andie and her sweet children are wonderful and I loved getting to know them better. They have been through so much and I wanted them to find a wonderful happy ever after! Who knew it would be a grumpy, workaholic sheriff named Marshall?! But, it just goes to show you that one person can make a huge difference in someone's life. Marshall was a workaholic sheriff and not all that friendly so when he gets injured in a hit & run accident, there is no one to take care of him. His "smothering" family is all out of town so his sister, Wyn, asks Andie, who lives on the same street as Marshall, if she will just check on him and maybe take him a few meals. Andie reluctantly agrees because she owes Wyn a great deal but Marshall has always made her nervous. Marshall doesn't want any help and doesn't like people coming into his home "helping" him. Both of them are quite a pair. I LOVED to see how they both helped each other strengthen their weaknesses! And Andie's kids were totally adorable! The ending was so heartwarming that it ranks as one of my all-time favorites! I wish it would have been a few pages longer! You have to read this book! A treasure for the holidays, for certain!

Once again RaeAnne Thayne has brought us a wonderfully heartwarming story from Haven Point. Andie Montgomery and her two small children immediately stole my heart and they were the perfect little family to help thaw the heart of the stoic and gruff Sheriff Marshall Bailey. Helping Marshall while he heals from a recent injury would try the patience of a saint but Andie won't let her friend and Marshall's sister down. Marshall hates to rely on anyone for help but he is drawn in by Andie's calm and caring demeanor as well as her incredible children. The pairing of these two was perfect and in addition to the wonderful romance slowly developing between Marshall and Andie we get the mystery of what is going on inside Marshall's department as well as who could possibly be stalking Andie. This one has it all and it's one you don't want to miss. I highly recommend it.
