HOPE FOR THE HOLIDAYS

Veterinarian Olivia O’Ballivan communicates easily with animals, but men are another story. Especially globe-trotting architect-turned-rancher Tanner Quinn. The grouchy single father just wants to be left alone, but he needs Olivia’s help. His daughter’s pony is sick and he desperately needs someone to care for it.

Olivia is less than impressed by the imposing Grinch, but she can’t turn down an animal in need, especially one so lonely. When Tanner’s daughter, Sophie, comes home in time for the holidays, they conspire together to get Tanner into the Christmas spirit. But Olivia will need to work a special kind of Christmas magic if she wants to heal Tanner’s stone heart. It will take a holiday miracle to transform Tanner into a rancher—and family man—for all seasons.
