Spirit of the Season

Joy Preston finds herself grappling with profound nostalgia for her late grandmother, whose absence leaves a significant void in her life. The shock of discovering the stipulations laid out in Nana’s will adds to her emotional turmoil. Having established herself as the CEO of a thriving nail polish company in Denver, Joy is firmly rooted in her life in Colorado.

The idea of abandoning her successful career, even for a short period, to manage a bed and breakfast in North Carolina feels impractical and frustrating. Yet, as she contemplates the situation, she cannot ignore the undeniable allure of Heart and Soul, especially during the festive season.

The bed and breakfast transforms into a winter wonderland each year, boasting intricately themed guest rooms and stunning outdoor displays that compete in the town’s annual Parade of Homes. The entire community comes alive with holiday spirit, and before long, Joy finds herself swept up in the celebrations, her initial reluctance fading away. The charm of Heart and Soul captivates her, drawing her into the warmth of the festivities and the joy of the season. However, there is an intriguing aspect to the B&B that piques her curiosity beyond its holiday decorations.

Whispers circulate among the guests that during the holiday season, they may have the chance to reconnect with the spirits of their departed loved ones. Although Joy approaches this notion skeptically, she cannot shake the feeling of her grandmother’s presence surrounding her. Nana seems to orchestrate events from beyond, perhaps even playing matchmaker with a dashing estate attorney who enters Joy’s life at just the right moment. This unexpected connection hints at the possibility of a fresh start, igniting a spark of hope and excitement within Joy as she navigates this enchanting chapter of her life.
