Cedar Hollow Christmas — Book 5

One anonymous letter. Two broken hearts. One Christmas that could change everything.

Every Christmas, Cedar Hollow gathers beneath its beloved town evergreen, where an anonymous letter has become part of the town’s most cherished tradition. But this year’s message is different. It names two people whose love story ended in heartbreak—and whose past may not be as simple as either remembers.

With Christmas approaching, old wounds reopen, long-buried secrets emerge, and a forgotten workshop becomes the center of a mystery involving missing records, conflicting memories, and promises that were never properly kept. As the town prepares for its most magical night of the year, the truth threatens to change more than one relationship.

Rebuilding trust takes more than remembering the good times. It requires difficult conversations, honest accountability, and the willingness to repair what was broken. For two people who once meant everything to each other, the question is no longer whether they can recover the past. It is whether they can create something better.

Who wrote the letters beneath the evergreen? What really happened years ago? And can love find its way home when the truth finally comes to light?
Under the Starlit Evergreen is a cozy second-chance holiday romance filled with snowy streets, glowing Christmas lights, small-town warmth, family secrets, heartfelt apologies, and the quiet magic of a love given another chance.

Perfect for readers of clean and wholesome Christmas romance, small-town holiday fiction, emotional second-chance love stories, and uplifting seasonal novels, this fifth installment in the Cedar Hollow Christmas series celebrates forgiveness, community, and the courage to begin again.

Each Cedar Hollow Christmas novel can be read as a standalone story, while returning readers will enjoy familiar faces, treasured traditions, and the continuing warmth of this festive fictional town.

This Christmas, the past may deliver the letter. Only the heart can decide what happens next.
