Love is worth celebrating at any time of the year . . .

The little English town of Lullbury Bay goes all out for Christmas each year, and Honor Martin loves it. After a bad breakup years ago, she’s settled into the simple pleasures of working at the local primary school and dining at the Sea Spray Café. The holiday is the high point of her year.

Artist Jago Pengethley, however, doesn’t share her merry mood. A new arrival in town, he’s here with his mother and sister to start anew after the devastating loss of his father. He’d be happy to never see another wreath or hear another carol.

But to help his little sister replace bad memories with good ones, he accompanies her to the various festivities. And as he gets to know her teacher, Honor, might she be the one to restore his Christmas spirit?
