The Christmas season…

Is perfect for new beginnings


After a tragedy seventeen years ago, author Ella Jacobs never wanted to come back to Lighthouse Cove. Not to the whispered rumors, the judgment or even to Ben Winters, the boy she loved. Now she’s returned in time for Christmas—and some much-needed closure. But old flames burn bright. Can Ella find her way back to Ben…or will the secrets of their past extinguish their love for good?

Excerpt
 
As soon as he saw Ella’s tall, slender form standing outside the mall’s main entrance with two shopping bags clutched in her hands, all thoughts of the company and this new problem vanished.

She stowed her bags in the back of the car and climbed into the passenger seat. “That was fast!”

Ben’s heart was full at the pleasure in her face. “Successful expedition?”

“Very.”

Her blue eyes stayed on his, and she beamed a smile Ben remembered from years ago. This is the grown-up Ella Jacobs I’ve been waiting to see. He wanted nothing more in the whole world than to draw her close and kiss those cherry-red lips. They stared at one another, their breathing the only sounds in the car. Ben sensed that if he reached for her, she wouldn’t resist. Then another driver honked from behind.

“Guess we should get going,” Ben muttered as he shifted into Drive. He’d just turned onto the highway when she spoke.

“How was your visit?”

Small talk? Ben guessed it was better than acknowledging what they’d both been feeling seconds ago, and he felt a pang of sadness at the gulf between them. One that he wondered if even a kiss could span. But the day wasn’t over yet, and better still, Ella was staying.
