Mistletoe at Maplewood Inn - Paperback

by Cecily Rowanell (Author)

She's running from Christmas. He's trying to survive it. The snowstorm had other plans.

Ivy Morrison doesn't do Christmas anymore.

Not since her life fell apart-lost job, lost apartment, lost hope. When a blizzard strands her at a charming Vermont inn, she's forced to share a room with Noah, a quiet stranger who seems just as determined to avoid the holiday as she is.

Noah hasn't celebrated Christmas in three years.

Not since his mom died and took all the joy with her. He came to Maplewood Inn to try again, but he didn't expect to get snowed in. And he definitely didn't expect Ivy-a woman whose guarded heart mirrors his own.

Three days trapped together. Late-night talks by the fire. Handmade ornaments on a tree that's witnessed decades of love stories. And one mistletoe moment that changes everything.

But falling for someone during a snowstorm is easy. It's what happens when the roads clear that's terrifying.

A sweet, emotional Christmas romance about two broken people who discover that healing doesn't mean forgetting-and that sometimes love means being brave enough to try.

For readers who love: emotional holiday romance, character-driven love stories, grief and healing themes, sweet kisses and big feelings
