Book Overview
When elite event planner Thandie Wilson is unceremoniously dumped by her Chicago firm, she does what any self-respecting professional would do—takes the first gig she can find and pretends everything's fine. The Evergreen Falls Holiday Festival is a charming small-town celebration that's about to get a major spotlight on national TV. Perfect opportunity for a career comeback, right?
That is, until she meets Kwame Adel, the festival committee's resident traditionalist who seems personally offended by her plans to modernize his beloved event. The fact that he's gorgeous, is a writer, and has a voice that could melt butter is completely beside the point.
What starts as a classic case of unstoppable force meets immovable object turns into something neither of them expected. Between debates over morning coffee, planning shenanigans, and the most meddlesome group of church mothers this side of the Mason-Dixon, Thandie and Kwame discover that the best traditions are the ones we create ourselves.
The Festival at Evergreen Falls is about finding yourself, falling in love, and learning that change isn't such a bad thing after all.
