A Holiday Reunion
When Cody Hawk returns to Canyon Springs, Arizona, to make peace with his ailing father, his bad-boy reputation is still intact. So is his love for the woman he was forced to leave behind. But the privileged Paris Perslow is still off-limits. When Paris needs his help with the annual holiday gala, Cody braves the town’s disapproving glances for a second chance with his first love. Years ago Cody promised he’d return for her. But with everyone and everything against them, what will it take to prove to Paris that his love is the perfect gift?
Did she have the courage to ask him?
It made sense to go to the Christmas gala together, she told herself. She was the head of the committee. Cody was in charge of decorations. Who could possibly object?
“Do you have a tux squirreled away some place?” she asked.
He looked at her, a glint in his eye. “What would be in it for me?”
Paris caught the teasing tone. “Great food. Live band. The oohs and aahs as everyone admires how great you look in a tux.”
“You’ve never seen me in a tux.”
She raised a brow. “I have a vivid imagination.”
A smile tugged at his lips even as warning bells sounded in his head. He’d give anything to waltz Paris around the dance floor in front of the astonished faces of the town’s elite. But could he ever indulge in a dream like that?
She looked him straight in the eye. “So,” she challenged, “how about it, Mr. Hawk?”
GLYNNA KAYE
treasures memories of growing up in small Midwestern towns—in Iowa, Missouri, Illinois—and vacations spent in another rural community with the Texan side of the family. She traces her love of storytelling to the many times a houseful of great-aunts and great-uncles gathered with her grandma to share hours of what they called “windjammers”—candid, heartwarming, poignant and often humorous tales of their youth and young adulthood.
Glynna now lives in Arizona, and when she isn’t writing she’s gardening and enjoying photography and the great outdoors.

Questions for Discussion
“Three weddings next month? Are you kidding me?” Paris Perslow cast a look of dismay at the wall calendar in the back room of her father’s real estate office on Main Street. The pastor of Canyon Springs Christian Church had to be out of his mind asking her to get involved with this. “December’s only a few days away.”
Outside the back window, a
