Fred Hallow-Hart isnt in love with the idea of returning home to Pine Bluff.

But after a bad breakup and a subsequent eviction, shes fresh out of options.

God knows she loves her mum and her eccentric aunts—and who could forget their Christmas Cracker family business?—but shes always felt a little out of place in her small town.

Quickly roped in by her mother to help with the cracker shop, Fred decides throwing herself into work might actually be whats best for her.

Until she reconnects with her old best friend Ryan, who is suddenly making her heart flutter in ways shes never known; and unexpectedly finds a spark with Warren, a charming journalist covering the Pine Bluff Christmas Market for the Daily News.

But as these connections slowly lead Fred back to her heart, shes forced to confront some harsh truths, which, if she doesnt find a way through, might just ruin the holidays for those dearest to her.

Can Fred let go of the past enough to recognize real love? And when she does, how far will she go to protect it?
