The loner

Meet Griff

Griff isn’t looking for Christmas. He limps back to his mountain cabin with a busted leg, no plans for holiday cheer, and one goal: quiet. He wants snowstorms, solitude, and his mutt Patch curled at his feet.

But then comes Leroy—the shotgun. Followed by three kids tumbling through the snow. And Chantilly, the woman who turns his world upside down.

A Promise for Christmas

Griff growls more than he speaks. His heart is locked tighter than his cabin door. Yet Chantilly meets his gruffness with grit and grace. Her kids—wild, joyful, and full of questions—crack open the silence he’s wrapped around himself.

This Christmas, Griff doesn’t just heal. He learns to hope. To trust. To love.
A Promise for Christmas is a story of second chances, snowy mornings, and love that shows up uninvited—and stays.

Home for Christmas Series

Snuggle in with Book 2 of the Home for Christmas series. These stories remind us that healing often arrives wrapped in flannel and grace, especially when we least expect it.
