Holiday shop owner Carol Baker infuses her business and her life with peace and good will. But she has secrets from her past that make her all the more determined to someday have a family of her own.

Ex-LAPD cop Jack Reilly's back in town -temporarily - to fill in for the ailing local sheriff. Haunted by the tragedy that made him leave Los Angeles, Jack doesn't believe is "forever." His sassy landlady Carol, with her year-round Christmas spirit, gorgeous smile, and adorable little foster daughter, Liz, begin to bring him back to life. But the past has a way of coming back again, and the things have a way of happening in Christmas - and if the Reillys have anything to say about it, what developes between Carol and Jack will be some kind of wonderful...
