This Christmas the Carlyle sisters will rediscover the gift of family
For some families, a Christmas reunion is like a feel-good movie. For Beth Carlyle, it might be more of a disaster epic. Her ex-husband’s new girlfriend is already pregnant. Her self-absorbed, bestselling author mother recently suffered a stroke and has summoned Beth’s sisters, Freya and Trinity—neither of whom even seem to like Beth very much—back to Magnolia. Beth’s so lonely and stressed that she spills her guts to a stranger, wondering why the handsome newcomer affects her so deeply. Reality TV star Freya deliberately forged a career that would upset her mother, who’s always been as brilliant as the sun…and just as distant. Now a handsome literary agent is making Freya dream of a different life. As for Trinity, she just wants to start over after leaving an abusive relationship and make a future for her and her baby.
It’ll be a Christmas like no other in Magnolia. But the Carlyle sisters might find they have more in common than their shared past—and that the holidays are made for second chances.
Includes a bonus holiday novella set in Magnolia!

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Major's wholesome fourth Carolina Girls novel (after Wedding Season) follows a trio of sisters determined to make peace with their egotistical mother—and themselves. After acclaimed author May Carlyle suffers a stroke, her estranged adult daughters Beth, Freya, and Trinity rush to her side in Magnolia, N.C.—just in time for Christmas. The sisters are each dealing with issues of their own: nurse Beth, who's had multiple miscarriages, is distraught to learn that her ex-husband's new wife is pregnant; Freya is unhappy in her career as a reality show star; and pregnant Trinity is on the run from an abusive relationship. All are at a crossroads: Beth wants to escape Magnolia, Freya wants to become an author, and Trinity wants a safe environment to raise her baby. Fortuitously, the universe has plans for the women in the form of handsome strangers: Beth's chance meeting with her patient's friend Declan Murphy leads to love; Freya catches the eye of Christopher Greer, her mother's agent; and widowed police chief Asher Davis falls for Trinity. But when Trinity's ex brings danger to town, all bets may be off. Major's charming small town is packed with salt-of-the-earth people readers will embrace, and each sister's journey is beautifully imagined. Readers will eagerly await their next visit to this idyllic community.
