There’s no place like Bliss for the holidays...
What else does Jason Macland have to do this Thanksgiving except save the town of Bliss from the idiot banker his dad hired? Step one: fire the idiot banker. Step two: help Fleming Harris save her Christmas shop or—better yet—foreclose on the place, because it would take a miracle to save a store that can’t break even selling holiday trinkets during the holiday season. And all Jason wants to do is cut his dad’s losses, salvage what local businesses he can and get out of the hometown he doesn’t even remember before all the ghosts of his past—and one particularly memorable Christmas-shop manager—threaten to melt his Scrooge heart.
“I’m not going to attack you because I wasn’t smart enough with my business.”
Having said that, Fleming couldn’t help weighing Jason up as the villain of her bad holiday season.
As they walked into the hotel, Lyle Benjamin appeared at the top of the cellar stairs, his arms full of firewood.
“Not you, too, Fleming?” he asked, glancing from Jason to her.
She blushed.
“The gossip in this town defeats any need for the internet,” Jason said impatiently.
“Sorry.” Lyle sent Fleming an apologetic look. He carried the wood to the hearth near his check-in counter and tossed a log into the fire. “Table for two?”
“No.” Fleming flinched as Jason’s voice echoed her own.
“I’ll call down for room service,” the banker said.
Fleming breathed a sigh of relief. She had to create a battle plan. This man wanted his bank in the black. He might say he was helping her, but he’d take the Mainly Merry Christmas shop if shutting her down bettered his bottom line.
It’s holiday time in Bliss, Tennessee! Jason Macland’s in Bliss to rescue his family’s bank. Unfortunately, that means he might have to foreclose on some bad loans, including the one for Mainly Merry Christmas, a shop run by Fleming Harris.
Fleming believes in the spirit of the holidays. Jason just wants to do his job and move on to the next one. Determined to remain detached from the citizens in the hometown he doesn’t even remember, every day for him is like a visit from some ghost of his past. Will he learn about joy from Fleming? And will he help her finally believe that a loving, honorable man can stay?
I’m so happy to be back in Bliss, the Smoky Mountain town where Now She’s Back and Owen’s Best Intentions are also set. As always, my visit back was like a trip through memories of my own childhood in the Smokies. I hope you’ll find your own sweet memories bounding up out of this story of celebrating love.
All the best,
Anna Adams

ANNA ADAMS wrote her first romance on the beach in wet sand with a stick. These days she uses pens, software or napkins and a crayon to write the kinds of stories she loves best—romance that involves everyone in the family and often the whole community. Love, like a stone tossed into a lake, causes ripples to spread and contract, bringing conflict and well-meaning “help” from the people who care most.
