Rescuing Christmas

All Holly Nichols wants this holiday season is to hole up in her historic home and try to make it through another Christmas. Losing her husband two years ago to a drunk driver plunged Holly into an all-consuming darkness. Only recently has she managed to reach for the light and find some remnants of joy as an elementary school teacher. With the encouragement of family and friends, Holly is ready to move forward, but she's lost her faith in love and has no plans to try and find it again.

When school breaks for the holiday, so does everything in her turn-of-the-century home. Desperate for help, Holly takes the advice of a friend and hires David Reed, a single dad new to Lantana Beach, to do the repair work. With his gentle manner and rugged good looks, David breaks through Holly's emotional
fortress, and she finds herself reconsidering more than just interior design. But is she brave enough to love again?

David Reed is a single dad trying to make the most of a precarious situation. Ever since a monstrous gulf coast hurricane tore his life apart and landed him in Lantana Beach, every day has been a tightrope walk between patience and panic. His top priority is making sure that his young daughters are insulated from their
desperate situation.

As David's new friends help him lay the foundation of a fresh start in the small coastal community, an attractive young widow lays claim to his handyman skills and his heart. Can he repair her broken heart alond with her quaint Victorian home?

Working side-by-side at Lantana Beach's holiday festival, these two troubled souls are determined to make the holiday special for David's children. But is community and family enough to help them discover love's healing power in time to rescue Christmas?
