Heartwarming holiday novella. Find your Sea Stars spirit with Mackenzie and Declan, as they navigate new love with real-life challenges of work, expectations and Christmas. Mackenzie wants to belong – to Declan, her boyfriend, and to Stella Mare, her new Canadian home. Putting on the village’s first-ever Sea Stars Festival at Christmas will help, but it must be perfect. She can’t risk making a mistake, but there's no way to get an entire village in line. Especially for somebody "from away," as she is. A city girl. Declan can’t commit – except to his writing career. He loves Mackenzie and he loves teaching at the high school but holds tight to his dream of moving to the city as a successful novelist. In the meantime, he’s producing his play with the kids at his school. Maybe Broadway is his future. Pulled in different directions, they both feel the distance, but can’t bridge it. In the meantime, his play and her festival create their own chaos. Twinkling lights, hot spiced cider, fluffy snowflakes, and sleighbells can’t cover up the flare of emotions as personalities clash, equipment fails, and people fall short. When the parade loses its focus, Mackenzie comes undone. She can't bear to disappoint everyone. If there is such a thing as a Christmas miracle, now would be a good time. Crusty villagers with a past, problem principals, an errant Santa and the inevitable dog all do their part as Christmas spirit - the special Sea Stars spirit - blooms in the village. Come home to Stella Mare, as Mackenzie and Declan explore what it means to belong – to a village and to each other.
