Evan, the county sheriff, knows that businesses are struggling in the small town of Clark Creek. But unlike the mayor--who happens to be his mother--he doesn't think that hiring a "Christmas Consultant," whatever that is, will help. Especially when this Christmas Consultant proposes a holiday parade that seems likely to overwhelm his staff and leave the town in even more debt. Mary is sure the parade is going to be a superb fundraiser. She's going to make sure of it, overcoming every obstacle...including those put in place by the stubborn sheriff. But in the middle of her planning, the unexpected happens: she and Evan begin to see one another in a different light. Could the parade bring about more than one Christmas miracle? This funny, feel-good holiday romance is perfect for fans of Sheila Roberts, Susan Mallery, and Jenny Hale.
