Wrapped Up in Christmas - Paperback

by Tara Baisden (Author)

When a woman who makes Christmas her mission crosses paths with the man who once broke her heart, the season of giving becomes the season of second chances.

Hallie Dawson has built her life around the magic of Christmas. As the owner of Wrapped Up in Christmas and founder of Operation Christmas Cheer, she's the beating heart of Mistletoe Falls-the woman who never lets anyone feel forgotten. But behind her ever-present smile and peppermint-scented shop lies a quiet ache for the parents she's lost and the childhood friend she never stopped loving.

Twelve years after leaving town to serve in the Marines, Chase Montgomery is back home, struggling to find his place in a world that's moved on without him. Helping his parents run the family toy store seems like the right thing to do-until he finds himself volunteering alongside Hallie and rediscovering everything he didn't know he was missing.

As snow blankets their small mountain town, Hallie and Chase must face the past that separated them and the connection that can bring them together again. Between cocoa-fueled community projects, and tender moments under twinkling lights, they'll learn that sometimes love needs a little Christmas miracle-and the courage to stay when it matters most.
