This Christmas season creates an unexpected connection… Quilt shop owner Sophie Davis has always loved history and mysteries so when she finds a soldier’s journal in a box of donated books, she’s intrigued. Her father was a vet, so Sophie feels a deep connection to the young man and his deeply emotional entries. Wanting to return the journal, Sophie sets out to return the journal. Former Marine Cole Aaron battles to find his personal peace and purpose when he returns to civilian life. He enjoys his work as a fire fighter, but still can’t shake his memories of the battlefield. When an attractive, sunny young woman returns his journal, all he wants to do is trash it. But Sophie’s not that easy to avoid and soon they are both volunteering on several Christmas committees in their small Kentucky town. He doesn’t want to look back, but can he and Sophie look forward and find a future touched by joy?
