      A runaway teen at Christmas...

      brings a special gift into her life.

      When Ava Cahill returns to Holly River to reunite with the son she gave up for adoption, she’s stunned to encounter Noah Walsh again. The attractive biker she knew six years ago had no idea of her secret. And now Ava’s mentoring his troubled daughter. As she and Noah rekindle powerful feelings, can she tell him the truth and become one forever family?

      CYNTHIA THOMASON inherited her love of writing from her ancestors. Her father and grandmother both loved to write, and she aspired to continue the legacy. Cynthia studied English and journalism in college, and after a career as a high school English teacher, she began writing novels. She discovered ideas for stories while searching through antiques stores and flea markets and as an auctioneer and estate buyer. Cynthia says every cast-off item from someone’s life can ignite the idea for a plot. She writes about small towns, big hearts and happy endings that are earned and not taken for granted. And as far as the legacy is concerned, just ask her son, the magazine journalist, if he believes. Please contact Cynthia at [email protected] and cynthiathomason.net.

      “I’m not sure if I’m lost in the memories of that one night in our past or if I wish tonight were a first.”

      “I’m not sure, either, Noah,” Ava said. “But we can’t relive the past, can we? Nor should we automatically believe that the past determines the future.”

      “Everything about that night is coming back to me, Ava,” Noah whispered.

      “Perhaps you shouldn’t read too much into one simple kiss.”

      “Maybe,” he agreed. “But I would hardly call the one I just experienced ‘simple.’ I’m not sorry at all that you and I met once before, or that you and I found each other again...”

      Dear Reader,

      “For the love of a child,” one of the most powerful phrases in our language. What any of us wouldn’t do for the love of a child. We try to do what’s best for the children in our lives. We struggle with each decision and pray we made the right one.

      High Country Christmas is Ava’s story, the third book in the trilogy, The Cahills of North Carolina. Years ago, Ava made a decision about a child in her life and now she is facing the consequences of that choice. She changes her future and doesn’t look back to do what’s right for Charlie and ultimately for Sawyer, a young teen being raised by an obstinate and risk-taking single dad.

      With the help of her supportive family and the man she comes to love with all her heart, Ava’s journey “for the love of a child” will hopefully warm your heart at Christmas and all year through.

      If you like Ava’s story, please read about her two brothers, who are as different as any brothers could be. High Country Cop is Carter’s story. Dad in Training is Jace’s.
