In the fourth installment of the bestselling series USA TODAY insists is one "for which you should reserve space on your keeper shelf," Rachel Hauck delivers a holiday romance for readers who dare to hope for happily ever after, even when one seems beyond reach.

"A stirring modern-day fairy tale about the power of true love." --Cindy Kirk

College volleyball star Avery Truitt hasn't set foot in Brighton Kingdom since Prince Colin shattered her heart five years ago. But now, the sadness of losing her father and the joy of her sister Susanna's pregnancy have brought Avery back to Brighton just in time for Cathedral City's enchanting Christmas season.

For Avery, Christmas in Brighton means facing Colin--now the Kingdom's most eligible bachelor--whether or not her heart is ready to relive the pain. And yet, seeing him again might bring her the closure she needs after all this time.

But Colin has his own battle to face. Drawn into a centuries-old tradition, he must decide whether to follow the path laid out before him or follow his heart to the only woman he would ever vow to love.

Can he convince Avery to meet him at the chapel on Christmas morning as tradition dictates, or will she leave Brighton Kingdom--and him--behind forever?
