Synopsis

Secrets are never discovered during the holidays, right? That's what these five best friends are banking on as they gather once again to Five Island Cove for what they hope will be a Christmas to remember.
AJ has a real boyfriend now, and he's really coming to the cove to meet her friends and family. She's turned into a domestic goddess as she preps to host Christmas at a rental that will hold everyone for the holidays. But beneath the bulky sweaters, AJ has a secret she won't be able to keep hidden forever.
Eloise is happily wearing her diamond ring, and she can't wait to spoil Aaron's children rotten over the holidays. But when he calls and says there's been an accident, Eloise will never look at Christmas the same.
Robin's just found out her husband needs a new fishing boat or he could sink while at sea. But they don't have the money to replace such a big-ticket item, and she's praying for a miracle this Christmas.
Kelli comes to the cove on a one-way ticket and more than she and her son need for a couple of weeks, but she's too humiliated to tell her friends that she is not cut out for a polyamorous relationship and that her husband has chosen that lifestyle over her.
Alice, struggling to make ends meet for the first time in her life, wants to be the one to bring them all together, bind up their broken hearts, and make Christmas wishes come true. When a mysterious benefactor allows her to do just that, she wonders what the ultimate price will be.
Because she knows better than anyone that everything has a price, and nothing comes for free...
Gather for the holidays with these five best friends as they celebrate Christmas at the cove, continue to find themselves and their future, and support each other through thick and thin.

Not a Standalone When I saw this Christmas book at one of my favorite book review sites, I snapped it up because I was looking for Christmas books at the time. Unfortunately, it is not a book that can be read easily as a standalone. Several books precede it, and I think to best understand the books,......more

I've enjoyed this series very much up to this book. It felt like it was written by a different author. For starters - and a pet peeve - where the huge numbers of typos and factual mistakes. I think self-publishing has greatly added to this problem because of the lack of professional editing. Then, wi......more
