She’s rebuilding her life. He’s holding his together. One unexpected Christmas changes everything.
Struggling single mom Lainey Bell believes in working hard, keeping her heart guarded, and never expecting too much from the world. But when she accepts a job helping a single father prepare his nearly empty home for a high-stakes holiday party, she walks straight into the kind of warmth she’s been missing for years.
Cole Kingsley has mastered the art of survival—balancing long work hours, raising his son alone, and living in a house that doesn’t feel like home anymore. Then Lainey arrives, bringing laughter to his quiet kitchen and light back into his son’s eyes.
As the two families blend in unexpected ways—and long-buried hopes start to rise—Lainey knows she’s standing on the edge of something she can’t afford to want. Especially when the life waiting for her outside of Riverbend Drive threatens to unravel everything she’s built.
If you love cozy Christmas charm, soft single dads, adorable kids, and heroines who deserve a happily ever after this tender, heartwarming romance is for you.
The Next Mrs. Christmas is a heartwarming, small-town holiday romance full of found family, second chances, and the magic of believing you deserve more than “almost.”
Perfect for fans of Hallmark Christmas movies, Jenny Hale, Hope Holloway, and sweet, feel-good romances.
