A Bookshop for Christmas

About this book

Seven estranged cousins. One ambitious project. A hundred ways it could all go very wrong. When Brooke's beloved grandparents die unexpectedly, their final wish brings her scattered family back to Hope Creek, including Jeremiah, the boy she once loved-the same boy who abandoned them when the Chilton clan disintegrated years ago. Despite the long-held grudges and awkward secrets that kept them all apart, Brooke and Jeremiah convince the Chilton cousins to stick around and help honor their grandparents' last request: to take the old church they saved from destruction and turn it into a bookshop that will serve their beloved community. And to do it all before Christmas. But repurposing the church building may be easier than healing the deep wounds that tore their family apart. Secrets, both old and new, threaten to destroy Brooke and Jeremiah's hope that this project could be a new beginning for all of them. With the bookstore's opening day fast approaching and everyone's lives upended, each cousin must discover for themselves that the greatest inheritance their grandparents left behind wasn't a building-it was the gift of forgiveness, the power of second chances, and the enduring hope of Christmas.
