SummaryMaureen Davenport lives for Christmas—and there's
nothing more magical than Christmas on Willow Lake.
The prim librarian is finally getting her chance to direct
Avalon's annual holiday pageant, and she's determined to
make it truly spectacular. But it might just require one of
those Christmas miracles she's always read about.
Because her codirector is recovering former child star Eddie
Haven, a long-haired, tattooed lump of coal in Maureen's
pageant stocking. Eddie can't stand Christmas, but a court
order from a judge has landed him right in the middle of the
merrymaking.
Maureen and Eddie spar over every detail of the pageant,
from casting troubled kids to Eddie's original—and
distinctly untraditional—music. Is he trying to
sabotage the performance to spite her? Or is she trying too
hard to fit the show into her storybook-perfect notion of
Christmas?
And how is it possible that they're falling in love?
