While Merry Little Love Story is the second book in the Reindeer Falls series, it can also be read and enjoyed as a standalone holiday novel! It's not rocket science, it's Reindeer Falls. Michelle Collins used to love the week after Christmas. That was when Ryan Cross, rich kid from Boston, came to Reindeer Falls to spend a week with his great-aunt Dottie. From the ages of six to seventeen, with a suitcase full of video games and a childlike wonder for small-town traditions, Ryan stole her heart…at least until the year he stopped showing up. Ten years later, when Ryan unexpectedly returns to town, and Heavenly Peace—Reindeer Falls’ beloved retirement community—finds itself at risk of shutting down, Michelle’s life is thrown for a loop. With a wild goose chase on behalf of Great-Aunt Dottie, and old feelings for Ryan creeping up like the Ghost of Christmas Past, will this holiday season bring a second chance at love…or the untimely end of an era?
