Jana Calendar loves her life working with special needs girls at her family’s ranch. When her favorite child loses yet another foster home, she decides to be the one to get her out of the system and adopt her. Working closely with Aubrey’s social worker is no hardship. When there is a glitch in her plans, the two of them work together quickly to find a solution. Brandon Ziegler has been a social worker since he left college, and little Aubrey has his heart in the palm of her hand. When a solution is offered to have one of Aubrey’s favorite people adopt her, he jumps at the chance and determines to do whatever he can to make it happen. The fact that Jana is the most beautiful woman he’s ever seen makes it even easier. When the two of them find a creative solution that will not only get Aubrey out of foster care but bring the two of them closer together, it seems like a good answer, but how well could it work? Is it worth changing your entire life for the sake of a young orphan?

February "Val" Calendar is one of twelve adopted sisters, and she loves her entire huge and utterly crazy family. She really and truly does. It's just that lately...well, lately, she's been wondering about this empty feeling inside, this desire to be a part of something more. She wonders if it's a result of not knowing her birth family, and Val's initial research has indicated a few options open to her. She's determined to use them all in her search to find where she really belongs. Cord O'Connor is thrilled when he opens his front door one November afternoon to discover a gorgeous woman on his doorstep...but decidedly less thrilled when she tells him she might be his sister. He knows there's no way she's related to him, but before he can move their relationship in the direction he wants it to go, he's going to have to convince her of that, and the only option is to join her in her search for fulfillment. But the more he gets to know Val, the more Cord realizes finding her birth family isn't going to fill the emptiness inside her. It's up to him to prove to Val she is already as loved as she possibly could be! Now, if only he can convince her being related to him—not as a sibling—might be the most wonderful choice either of them has ever made, they'll both have a reason to be thankful this holiday season!

Marci Calendar loves the children she teaches at the Calendar Girls’ Ranch, and she loves her family whole-heartedly. However, she doesn’t believe in love between a man and a woman. She’s seen two of her sisters fall in love, but she knows it could never happen to her. Thomas Latham agrees to be the official electrician for the first year of the Calendar Girls’ Ranch’s drive-through Christmas display. He knows he’ll need to spend a lot of time at the ranch to get it all wired up, and he has a short period of time to do it all. The family decided to add the display at the last minute in order to earn a bit more money for the ranch and the scholarships they give out every year. When Marci first sees Thomas, she isn’t sure what to think. He’s working hard for the family—and he’s the most handsome man she’s ever seen. When he asks her to be his date for the official tree-lighting ceremony, she agrees, but she knows it won’t go anywhere. Will this mismatched couple be able to see past their differences to a future together? Or will Marci realize she’s been right all along?

April Calendar might be a little obsessed with Christmas. Or a lot. As far as she's concerned, Christmas isn't just the most wonderful time of year, it's basically her reason for existing! Now, if she could—just once—manage to win the annual town Christmas Tree Decorating Contest and win the money her family's ranch so desperately needs, she'll be able to prove her Christmas obsession is actually useful! Too bad she can't come up with a winning theme. And too bad she's paired up with the ranch's grumpy new handyman in her attempts to win the contest...no matter how hot he is. Cole Carpenter only took on this new job because he wants to save money for the house he's building. He doesn't need the distraction of an adorable, far too energetic, Christmas-obsessed lady. And he definitely doesn't need to worry about some stupid tree-decorating contest. But it's hard to deny her enthusiasm, though silly, is starting to make him feel pretty good inside. And it's impossible to deny how good she feels in his arms. Maybe there's something to this whole "Magic of the Christmas Season" thing after all. Maybe that's all it'll take for a grinch and an elf to find love this year!

The second of the Calendar triplets, May is a quiet, critter-loving woman who enjoys being around her family but has issues with strangers. When she goes to the doctor for yet another animal-related injury, she is surprised to see the grown-up version of the little boy she did everything with from her first day in kindergarten to her last day of high school. Adam Petrowski moved back to Cauldron Valley after medical school simply to be able to reconnect with the girl of his dreams, May Calendar. He wants nothing more than a quick wedding and a happily ever after with the sweet girl. When she walks into his office with an infected squirrel bite, he knows his dreams are coming true. A supper invitation starts them down the road he’s been praying for. Will Adam be able to convince May that they need to be together for always? Or will she refuse to give love a chance?

When you're the sixth of twelve sisters, and the first five have all fallen in love and gotten married, one after the other, people start looking at you to make the "Next Big Announcement." But June Calendar is having none of that. She's an accountant for goodness' sake, not some mushy-minded romantic twit! Junie is going to do this logically, and will simply fake a relationship with a man she'll tell her family is her "True Love." And when he breaks her heart, which will all be part of the agreement between them, her loving—yet overly-enthusiastic—family will have no choice but to let her live her life in peace...at least for a while. Simple and logical. Now to find a groom... Poll Weston is flattered when his long-time crush asks him to save her from her family's good intentions, and even more so when Junie offers him—in exchange—the chance to partner with her in the annual Valentine's Day ice sculpting competition. After all, everyone knows she's the best sculptor Cauldron Valley has ever seen, so pairing with her would be a sure win for Poll...but will he be prepared to hold up his end of the bargain when the time comes?

Julia Calendar, the seventh of the twelve Calendar sisters, feels as if she is just another month of the year.

She watches as her six elder sisters fall in love and marry, and she knows she’s expected to be next, but how could a man fall in love with her? She’s just July. Brent Collings is a survivor. His wife Andrea died eighteen months before of breast cancer, and he was forced to be the one to go on with two sons. A rancher and the manager of the Cauldron Valley recreation center, he decides to hire someone to teach art, simply so his younger son can take classes with someone proficient. As soon as he sees Julia Calendar, something he said he would never do. He saw her and wanted to spend time with her. In a romantic way. Can these two unlikely people really fall in love? Or will Brent go on being the lone survivor? And will Julia ever realize she’s anything more than just July?
