Readers will eagerly await their next visit to this idyllic community.--Publishers Weekly This Christmas the Carlyle sisters will rediscover the gift of family For some families, a Christmas reunion is like a feel-good movie. For Beth Carlyle, it might be more of a disaster epic. Her ex-husbands new girlfriend is already pregnant. Her self-absorbed, bestselling author mother recently suffered a stroke and has summoned Beths sisters, Freya and Trinity--neither of whom even seem to like Beth very much--back to Magnolia. Beths so lonely and stressed that she spills her guts to a stranger, wondering why the handsome newcomer affects her so deeply. Reality TV star Freya deliberately forged a career that would upset her mother, whos always been as brilliant as the sun...and just as distant. Now a handsome literary agent is making Freya dream of a different life. As for Trinity, she just wants to start over after leaving an abusive relationship and make a future for her and her baby. Itll be a Christmas like no other in Magnolia. But the Carlyle sisters might find they have more in common than their shared past--and that the holidays are made for second chances.
