Book excerpt: Lily Paddington has a gift, but to her, it's more of a curse. Three years ago, she walked into her husband's dream and found out he'd been lying to her for months. Now she's divorced, and doing whatever she can to make ends meet while raising her son on her own. After being unlucky in love, she has a hard time trusting anyone. But when she finds herself stranded in a small town overnight with Chase Garland, her walls start to crumble. Chase Garland lost his wife in a traffic car accident over a year ago and has moved to Christmas Grove to start over. He's content with his new job making magical edible chocolates at Love Potions, and even though he's told himself he'll never love again, there's a charming co-worker he can't seem to stop thinking about. After a night in a remote skiing town, it's time for him to make a choice: allow himself to open his heart or give in to the fear of losing in love again.
