Roland McBride has been trusted with taking over the Secret Saint duties in the town of Mistletoe Meadows. He loves helping families and making people smile. Only one problem - he has a competitor. Nelly Bushnell just wanted to help out. She didn't realize she would be stepping on anyone's toes as she used her gifts to shower her hometown with Christmas Cheer. Unfortunately this seems to have caused some upset with her sworn enemy, Roland McBride. Just because they swore to be enemies in elementary school, doesn't mean that she doesn't take their vows seriously, and she takes great delight in continuing to do her Secret Saint - like deeds, just because it bothers him. One cold, snowy night, the two Secret Saints meet and chop firewood together. That begins a partnership that lasts through the holiday season, but their identities remain a secret. Until Roland is falsely accused of a crime and the only way Nelly can save him is to reveal both of their identities. Will the Christmas spirit help these two enemies fall in love?

In Mistletoe Meadows, a small-town doctor with a shattered reputation and a single-dad sheriff with trust issues discover that sometimes the best healing happens when you least expect it... Dr. Hannah Reynolds never planned to return to Mistletoe Meadows. After a devastating medical mistake shattered her big-city career, her hometown seems like the last refuge for her broken confidence. Taking over the town's only medical practice should be simple—until she comes face-to-face with her high school crush, Sheriff Ben Tucker, who doesn't even remember who she is. Ben Tucker moved back to Mistletoe Meadows for one to give his troubled teenage son Mason a fresh start away from his ex-wife's betrayal. The last thing he needs is an attraction to the brilliant new doctor who's stirring up long-forgotten feelings—especially when Mason seems determined to push every boundary Ben sets. When the annual Mistletoe Festival needs medical and security directors, Hannah and Ben find themselves reluctantly working side by side. As town matchmakers (led by Ben's meddling mother) throw them together at every turn, Hannah discovers there's more to the stern sheriff than his badge, while Ben sees Hannah's compassionate outreach to the community's underserved. But when Mason begins to bond with Hannah over shared interests, Ben's protective walls rise higher. And when the beloved town matriarch Marjorie McBride faces a health crisis that brings everyone together, Hannah must decide if running back to the city is safer than risking her heart on a second chance at love, family, and community.

When an unexpected winter storm leaves Mistletoe Meadows in darkness, a young pastor and a widowed candle maker discover that sometimes the brightest light comes from the darkest moments... Pastor Mark Stevens never imagined his first Christmas in Mistletoe Meadows would involve a power outage, a church full of stranded townspeople, and falling for a woman who wants nothing to do with opening her heart again. Taking over for beloved Pastor Johnson after forty years was intimidating enough without a natural disaster and a candlelight Christmas Eve service that threatens to become all too literal. Olivia Winters has spent three years building walls around her heart while raising her twin boys and growing her handcrafted candle business since losing her military husband. The carefully structured life she's created leaves no room for dependence on others—especially not the too-kind, too-handsome new pastor who seems to be everywhere she turns. When a devastating winter storm causes a town-wide power outage just weeks before Christmas, Mistletoe Meadows faces its greatest challenge. As the church becomes an emergency shelter, Mark and Olivia find themselves working side by side to care for the community. With her candles providing the only light and his steady presence offering unexpected comfort, Olivia's walls begin to crumble despite her determination to remain self-sufficient. As Christmas approaches in cold and darkness, the light of unexpected love begins to glow. But when Olivia's estranged parents arrive for a surprise holiday visit and Mark struggles with filling his predecessor's shoes, they must decide if the fragile flame between them is strong enough to illuminate a future together. Return one last time to beloved Mistletoe Meadows in this heartwarming conclusion to the series that reminds us that with faith, family, and community, even the smallest flame can light the darkest night. Perfect for fans of Debbie Macomber, RaeAnne Thayne, and Courtney Walsh, this emotional small-town romance concludes the beloved Mistletoe Meadows series with a touching story about finding hope and love when we least expect it—and most need it.
