"Brenda Jackson writes romance that sizzles and characters you fall in love with."--Lori Foster, New York Times bestselling author

It's Christmas in Catalina Cove, a time of promise and second chances. But when you're starting over, love is the last thing you're wishing for...

Vaughn Miller's Wall Street career was abruptly ended by a wrongful conviction and two years in prison. Since then, he's returned to his hometown, kept his head down and forged a way forward. When he is exonerated and his name cleared, he feels he can hold his head up once again, maybe even talk to the beautiful caf� owner who sets his blood to simmering.

Sierra Crane escaped a disastrous marriage--barely. She and her six-year-old goddaughter have returned to the only place that feels like home. Determined to make it on her own, Sierra opens a soup caf�. Complication is the last thing she needs, but the moment Vaughn walks into her caf�, she can't keep her eyes off the smoldering loner.

When they give in to their attraction, what Sierra thought would be a onetime thing becomes so much more. Vaughn knows she's the one. Sierra can't deny the way Vaughn makes her feel, but she's been burned before. With Christmas approaching, Vaughn takes a chance to prove his love, and it will be up to Sierra to decide if her one Christmas wish--true happiness--will come true.
