Maggie Whitaker has spent most of her life in a Boston orphanage, serving as a surrogate mother to countless children. Now, at twenty-two and too old to stay, she faces an uncertain future. Determined to find a family of her own, she answers a matrimonial advert that leads her to Clearwater, Texas.
Upon arrival, Maggie is devastated to learn her intended groom has married someone else. Stranded in a strange town, she’s taken in by kind widow Harriet Barnett. Just as Maggie begins to settle into her new life, Harriet’s health declines, and her brooding grandson Sam arrives for the holidays. Maggie and Sam clash, their differences stark, but when a harsh winter storm strikes, they must rely on each other for survival.
As they navigate unexpected challenges, their animosity slowly gives way to friendship—and perhaps something deeper. Does Clearwater, Texas, hold the home and love Maggie has been searching for all along?
