J.L. Jarvis

Two people at a crossroads, two remote mountain cabins, and a Christmas they’ll never forget.

Sophie Furnell loves her job as a 911 operator, and she’s good at it. One call at a time, she makes her community a better place. But one night, she has to tell a caller that help isn’t coming. Soon after, her job is defunded. Disheartened and broke, she sets off for the Adirondacks to house-sit her grandmother’s rental cottage.

As violence sweeps through his neighborhood, Cole Marick defends his bicycle shop and loses. His wounds heal, but the business he’s worked hard to build is destroyed, along with his faith in humanity. Leaving the boarded-up neighborhood storefronts behind, Cole retreats to his family’s Adirondack fishing camp.

Amid towering snow-laden trees, two neighbors have come seeking refuge. But not even the shimmer of holiday lights against new-fallen snow is enough to bring Christmas joy to their two damaged spirits. Neither has seen much in the way of miracles lately, but as a snowstorm blows in and Christmas approaches, they discover that miracles come in many forms.

Christmas at Cedar Creek

CHILDHOOD FRIENDS

Annie Pope loves Finn Burton, and he loves her too—as a friend. Even after they both begin college, they return every year to their families’ neighboring cottages, work summers at the local food market, and spend all their spare time together.

MAKE CHOICES

But when Finn graduates and takes off backpacking through Europe with his college girlfriend—a girlfriend he’s never mentioned to Annie—she’s forced to face facts. She is merely the sister he never had, and he’s the boyfriend she’ll never have.

THAT TIME CAN’T ERASE

Two decades later, life hasn’t turned out as Annie had hoped, but she’s come to terms with it. In fact, she’s content with her life—that is, until her daughter and Finn’s son show up and announce they’re getting married, bringing Finn Burton back into her life.

BUT CAN LOVE?

Now they’re both trying to be the good friends they’d once been. But friendship has never felt like this.

Snowstorm at Cedar Creek

They have nothing in common — except falling in love.

 

Zoey Beckett, still haunted by the loss of her parents in a plane crash, has closed herself off from relationships and pours herself into her teaching. But when the school board implements changes that would hurt her students, Zoey resigns.

Foreign news correspondent Tyler Farrington has seen too much violence. When the facts he reports are suppressed, he resigns. Desperate to recharge, he buys a mountain cabin in the small town of Cedar Creek.

When Tyler and Zoey meet while volunteering at the town’s historic theater, their chemistry is undeniable. But so are their polar opposite lives. The two broken souls could complete one another if they dared. But it will take a leap of faith, and that might be one leap too many.
