When successful Vancouver real estate mogul Hayden Brooks is blackmailed by a woman who alleges she had his baby and gave her up for adoption seven years ago, he is determined to find the child. A private investigator locates Cassandra, who was adopted by Alex McAllister, a baker at the Sweet Spot Bakery in the tiny Canadian town of Still Harbor. As Hayden is waiting for Alex to grant permission for Cassandra to submit to a paternity test, tension builds. Alex contemplates whether Hayden is friend or enemy when he joins them for the Santa parade and Christmas tree shopping. Hayden feels that the warmth of Cassandra's cozy family life is changing his original plans to take her home with him if she truly is his daughter. A snowstorm provides the opportunity for Hayden and Alex to learn about each other and the reasons they both need Cassandra in their lives. This is the third series for James, the
New York Times and
USA Today best-selling author of "The Red River" and "The Billionaire" books.
VERDICT In James's page-turning story, anxious adults are relaxed by joyful children during the Christmas season. This novel offers a great escape from holiday madness and crowds.
