Spend a festive Christmas in the English village of Ivy Hill, as divine hope, friendship, and unexpected

romance work their magic. …

Richard Brockwell, the younger son of Ivy Hill’s most prominent family, hasn’t been home for Christmas in years.

He prefers to live in the London townhouse, far away from Brockwell Court, the old family secret that haunts him,

and the shadows of his past mistakes. But then his mother threatens to stop funding his carefree life—unless he comes

home for Christmas. Out of options, he sets out for Ivy Hill, planning to be back on a coach bound for London and

his unencumbered bachelor life as soon as the festivities are over.

But Christmas in the country presents many surprises, including encounters with an orphaned apprentice, the first

love he disappointed years ago, and Arabella Awdry, a young lady who is far more appealing than he recalled—and

determined to have nothing to do with him.

Will Christmastime in Ivy Hill, with its village charm, kissing boughs, and joyous songs, change his heart … and

hers as well?
