Some promises were never meant to be broken… Lucy Milburne had her heart broken a decade ago. After leaving her small hometown to escape the painful memories, she has built a new life in the big city as a second-grade teacher. With a boyfriend and possibly the best friend in the world, everything seems perfect—until it all comes crashing down during summer break. Left with no other choice, Lucy returns to Port-Cartier to mend her broken heart and face the past she thought she had left behind. Luke Everett broke the heart of the only woman he ever loved ten years ago, but he has never stopped loving her. Each day without her has been torture, but he accepted his fate long ago. He never expected to see her again, but now that she's back in Port-Cartier, he knows he can’t let her go again. Ten years have passed, and their lives can’t be any more different. But, when an unfortunate accident forces Lucy to stay in the town longer than she intended, old flames spark back up. They both realize some promises were never meant to be broken. The only question is, can they find a second chance at love?

After ten years apart, Luke and Lucy are finally spending their first Christmas together. The occasion is already joyous, but Luke is determined to make it the most special year ever. And he has come up with a plan to make it happen. For the next twelve days, he will give Lucy a present each day. Some will remind them of the past they share, while others will help them build new memories together. Either way, he intends to cherish every moment they spend by each other’s side. His plan includes a few key gathering the entire family, flying Lucy’s best friend to Port-Cartier, and finding the perfect ring to symbolize the start of a new chapter in their lives together. But, by the time Christmas rolls around, Lucy has a surprise of her own to share.
