Madelyn "Lyn" Creeke and her grandmother were the last of their family.  At least, that's what Lyn's grandmother always led her to believe.

Lyn had never heard of or seen pictures of Georgina Creeke, a great aunt that had been living a few hours away for most of Lyn's life.  So it came as a surprise when Lyn got word that she'd been named the sole heir of Georgina's estate.  An estate that included a beautiful bed and breakfast situated in the festive town of Hereford Hills.

Lyn visits the inn to put it up for sale, but is trapped into sticking around through the holidays thanks to the inn's handsome, but frustrating, caretaker, Jordan Wells.  While there Lyn realizes that there's more locked away in this charming B&B than just money.  She discovers an aunt who, despite being filled with joyful song and festive cheer, lived her life battling the guilt of her past mistakes.  Mistakes that kept her from starting a family of her own, leaving her legacy completely in Lyn's hands.
