"Addy Granger has given up on love-- for herself, anyway. Wedding bells seem to be ringing away for other members of her family, but not for her. No way, no how. She is currently suffering from a severe case of love doom, and down deep she fears she can never open her heart to love, not after the way her boyfriend back in college hurt her. Blake Parnell has returned home from a long stint in the Marines, determined not to be that boy he used to be in high school-- the one so hopelessly in love with Addy Granger. He'd joined the Marines and traveled the world to get over her, but the instant he sees her again those old feelings return full force. He fears history is about to repeat itself because Addy Granger has never seen him as anything more than a friend. But as they work together to restore an old sleigh for her dad's wedding, Blake begins to hope he has a real chance to win her heart-- if only he can make her believe."
