Now a Harlequin Movie, Love Alaska!

Her Christmas Match

After inheriting a gift shop in Love, Alaska, single mom Maggie Richards is ready for a new beginning—while her little boy is ready for a new daddy! But Maggie has no time for love—she wants to open the shop in time for Christmas, something she’ll do with help from childhood friend Finn O’Rourke. Finn’s on board to help Maggie—but not with the romance rumors that swirl around them like snow. Like Maggie, he’s hiding too many secrets to ever wed. So why do Maggie and her little boy make him dream of finding an unusual gift under the tree—a ready-made family?

Ratings and reviews

What a wonderful holiday book! Two people that needed each other but were determined to avoid "romantic entanglements" because of their pasts! A past that included each other as children, I might add, but that was long ago and in the ensuing years, a lot of trials and tribulation have happened to each one. They are each wanting to move forward now so that doesn't include romance. Maggie has a sweet little boy and a new life ahead of her when she leaves Boston under a cloud of shame and wants to start a new life in Alaska after her deceased uncle leaves her his business in his will. She sees this as a new beginning. Finn also received something in Maggie's uncle's will and that puts him in close contact with her as they work to open up this business. Finn, however, has no illusions that he is anything but a friend to Maggie. They were once the best of friends at 10 years old but they could never be more than that. He loves her little boy but doesn't want to be mistaken for father material either. Finn is hiding secrets that no one else knows and he wants to keep it that way. I've been waiting for Finn's book ever since he appeared in another book! I knew he had to have a book of his own! This one didn't disappoint! Such a wonderful story of two people trying to work out their past and seeking forgiveness for things they perceived were their fault. Such a tender, touching holiday book! I highly recommend it!
