Emma thought she had it all: a successful career as a cardiologist, a great girlfriend who wanted to marry her, and an amazing life in Boston that was everything she hoped for. She was on top of the world. That is until she comes home one day to find that Ava has been having an affair.
Heartbroken and ready for a break, Emma decides to fly home to Glacier, Idaho to nurse her broken heart. But there's a new resident who is the talk of town: Skye Evans, the mysterious gay bookshop owner who up and moved her whole life to a town that looks like a Christmas Card. Emma is interested, but obviously only in being her friend while she gets over her break-up. Her mom has different plans, however, and suddenly Emma finds herself somehow in close proximity with the woman at every turn. Skye's charming and gorgeous, but Emma is determined not to let anyone new sweep her off her feet.
