Inviting your ex-spouse for the holidays might not be a good idea. Especially when folks don’t know you were married before.
Carolina quit her job and for the first time ever, she’s doing the holidays as a stay-at-home mom. And doesn’t all that extra time mean everything will be perfect?
Then the RV showed up. The RV with her parents, their dogs, and their obsession with Gone with the Wind.
… the Wind.
Then the college kids showed up. Their whirlwind left an empty refrigerator, loads of laundry, and a girl. A girl no one seems to know much about.
Then the other grandparents showed up. Hillbilly Hank on his book tour of Southern retirement homes brings his entourage, along with a special kind of marital discord.
While the town of Chancey watches the happenings up on the hill at the B&B, they are also trying to figure out the town’s bank account. Laney is the town’s treasurer, but she’s not answering questions. Missus has ordered 500 fake cardinals for her Christmas Ball. Peter is settling back into his home town and watching the B&B for his own personal reasons.
All the secrets aren’t in boxes tied with ribbons and bows.

Love all the Chancey books!
Lovely read
Wonderful characters, loved all books in series, waiting for next one. Excellent writing. Shows that good stories don’t need swear words, steamy scenes,. Characters are so well developed you feel as if you have met them. Highly recommend.
Addictive series
becoming hooked on this series
I loved the Chancey series! Reading these books was like living in the community of Chancey with your friends and being part of their lives. Funny, Genuine. I really liked the Chancey series!
Easy and light story.
One in a series of great southern reads….interesting characters, and the author transitions well from one book to the next.
The main character can’t seem to get out of her own way. I couldn’t sympathize with her much.
A good read and found myself drawn to the characters but the proof-reading left something to be desired.
I like all the Chancey books!
So many emotions – sadness and heartache and happiness and contentment are within this book. You may want to shake some sense into one or two of the characters or perhaps, hug most of them but you certainly will want to know more about all of them.
It was my pleasure to receive this free book from the author and give my honest review.
I read this series quite a while ago so details aren’t in the forefront of my memory, but what I did store is that I enjoyed every single book in this series. I bought and read them all. The world of this community was created to feel like real people. Very enjoyable read.
Was never able to get into box
Way too many characters, and convoluted relationships. I finished it but wouldn’t recommend it.
To many characters, hard to follow. I finally got a handle on the book at the end. Not a favorite.
True to the setting and characters are realistic to the southern setting.
This is the second one I have read in this series and I enjoy seeing the progress of the characters.
Has all the realistic small town situations. Will read all in the series.
A quick read.
