About the book:
They’ve weathered a lot
worse than winter. For widow June Harper, another cold front is about to
hit. Most call him Hugh. She’d call him Scrooge, except as the man
ensures her needs are met, June can’t help but wonder how to meet the
needs of his heart.
Netty Lewis can take care of herself, has
for a while now. Some hired help over the holidays doesn’t change that.
And even if Roy does take care of her, that doesn’t mean he cares for her or that he’ll stay past Christmas.
Pastor Colton McCabe is having the opposite problem. He’s not sure
he’ll make it through the holidays with his new housekeeper. Grace can’t
seem to do anything right but love. Perhaps being a homekeeper will
earn her a permanent residence in his heart.
And no one longs
for a home more than Connie Lancaster. She’s determined to return to St.
Louis, and no cowboy can change her mind. But if Isaac can change her
heart, maybe Connie will see the homecoming she’s been waiting for isn’t
to a place but a person.
