When traveling nurse and midwife Evelyn Brooks arrives in the snowy mountain village of Snowhaven Ridge, she expects a quiet winter assignment-and nothing more. But the town's twinkling lights, endless Christmas cheer, and tight-knit community are harder to ignore than she anticipated.
Evelyn has a secret: she's been running from grief ever since losing her husband, and Christmas is a painful reminder of everything she's lost. Staying here-even temporarily-means opening her heart again, a risk she isn't sure she's ready to take.
Then there's Logan Mercer, rugged lumberjack and lifelong resident. Quiet, dependable, and unwavering in his belief that Christmas is about showing up, even when it hurts, Logan challenges everything Evelyn believes about love, family, and home.
Between snowstorms, holiday traditions, and a few unexpected mix-ups, Evelyn and Logan find themselves drawn together in a town that refuses to let anyone hide forever. Can a city girl who hates Christmas learn to trust again-and maybe even fall in love-before the snow melts?
Heartwarming, slow-burn, and perfect for fans of small-town Christmas romances, A Season to Stay is a story about healing, love, and the courage it takes to finally belong.
