Pine For You

Rosie Atwood is overwhelmed. Christmas used to be her favorite time of year, but everything changed five years ago when her best friend ghosted her right before she could tell him how she really felt. And it's all gone downhill since. When her sister dies, and Rosie's left in charge of her young nephew, she's willing to do whatever she needs to protect him from the Atwood curse. Including becoming a surrogate for her oldest sister in exchange for meals and a place to live. Her last dream is to turn things around for Waldvogel Farms. Holden's grandparents are the best family she ever had, and she refuses to let them down. But being pregnant and thrust into the role of parent doesn't make it easy. Then Holden Moore shows back up, ready to reclaim his spot in her life like nothing changed. Rosie thinks things can't get any worse. Until someone starts sabotaging all the work she'd done to save the Farm. Is Holden behind the damage? Using it as an excuse to get close to her? Or is there something more sinister at play?

Holden Moore never intended to leave Pinesbury behind. He just wanted to be a soldier. And he wanted to be the kind of man his best friend could love. But a close call on his first deployment made Holden reevaluate everything he'd ever known. Afraid he wouldn't be there for Rosie or his family back home, Holden cut ties. Now he's back in town, five years later, and ready to leave combat behind and right his wrongs. It's just too bad Rosie isn't ready to welcome him back into her life. But Holden is determined to change her mind. When things start going wrong at Waldvogel Farms, Holden finds himself blamed by the town that helped raise him. Juggling the hunt for the mysterious saboteur, rebuilding his relationship with Rosie, and fighting his status as Pinesbury's Fallen Golden Boy wasn't how he planned to spend his first Christmas back, but when an innocent gets caught in the middle, Holden has no choice but to tap into his old training or risk losing everything.

With Happily Ever After on the line, will Rosie and Holden be able to heal old wounds and save Waldvogel Farms in time for Christmas? Or will it all go down in flames?
