About this ebook

This year there's not much holiday cheer for a grumpy ex-ball-player, but maybe he's stumbled onto the small town—and Christmas angel—who will turn his life around.


Carter Daye has always known exactly who he is. A ball player. Until an accident took his lower leg and his dreams along with it. Now he doesn’t have a clue where he belongs. Hiding out in a small town in the middle of nowhere feels like the perfect place to figure it out.


Diner owner, Kelsey Danvers loves her small town, all things Christmas and believes there are very few things that can’t be made better with a smile. Unfortunately, her grumpy neighbor disagrees.


But Kelsey has never met a Scrooge who didn't eventually appreciate a little holiday cheer.


Carter stopped believing in the magic of Christmas long before he lost his leg. But his sunshiny neighbor seems to have made it her holiday mission to help him see that life is what you make it. If only that were true. Kelsey’s pulling out all the stops to make him see there’s a whole world beyond the diamond.


Grab this grumpy sunshine holiday novella about a small town girl and the wounded baseball player who moved in next door.


*This novella was previously published in the Cinnamon & Spice Holiday Anthology
