And shes traveled hundreds of miles to the small town of Safe Haven to make that wish come true. But the mysterious Cash ODwyer is nothing like she expected. Strong and kind, he makes her heart beat faster. And suddenly that little secret shes keeping about her sister stirs up all kinds of guilt Cash is stunned--and more than a little wary--to discover hes a father. Having a family of his own was never part of his planuntil sweet baby Penny and her fiercely independent aunt Holly arrive in town. Now hes trimming trees and stuffing stockings for three. But when the ghosts of Cashs past threaten the future of his fragile new family, hell do whatever it takes to be the father Penny needs--and the man Holly deserves--for more than just the holidays.
