I never saw this Christmas gift coming

When my ex-wife lands in rehab, I get a surprise for the holidays. A 7-year-old girl whos got no place to go. I love my former stepdaughter like shes my own, but I have no idea how to give her everything she needs.

In a holiday-crazed town like Christmas Falls, it seems inevitable Ill let her down.

Unless I finally let go of my pride an accept help from the new director of the Holiday Hope Foundation. Mason West is eager to lend support however he can. And when I let him, he goes above and beyond.

For Charlies sake. Not mine. Even if I maybe, kind of, wish that it was for me.

Ive never been into men before, but Mason is so sweet, so giving, soperfectly sized to snuggle in against my holiday sweater. Maybe if I can figure out what all this means, I can gain more than a daughter for the holidays.

Maybe I can keep the gift I’ve always wanted most—a family of my own.
