Crashing and burning in front of her childhood best friend and first kiss, Ben McNeil, wasn't exactly what Bobbi had on her Christmas list this year... After a string of bad relationships and a canceled graduation trip to Belize, Bobbi finds herself unexpectedly back home for Christmas. Despite the magnetic pull of holiday lights and hot cocoa in the square, she's committed to working on landing her dream film job in L.A. and putting frivolity, fun-and especially dating-decidedly in the slush pile. Ben, a highly sought-after ski instructor, is back in Sugar Creek for one reason and one reason only: to spend as much time as he can with his mom now that her MS has taken a turn for the worse. When Bobbi runs into Ben at St. Ambrose ski resort, she does her best to ignore the memories that bubble up inside her. She didn't plan on biffing it in fresh powder on the hill next to him. And she definitely didn't anticipate getting torturously stuck in a room overnight with him and his girlfriends. Despite her best efforts to stay far, far away from Ben McNeil, Sugar Creek seems to foil Bobbi's plans at every turn. As the two longtime friends help rebuild a set for White Christmas and work to create one last magical holiday for Ben's mom, Bobbi can no longer ignore the attraction reigniting within her. She can't help but wonder what might've been had Ben stayed in Sugar Creek all those years ago... This cozy, festive read is a toasty blanket and steaming cup of cocoa in a book. Fans of Katherine Center, Debbie Macomber, and Nicola May will love this heartwarming, uplifting holiday romance.
