She especially loves the thought of winning the Christmas trophy for the Best Home Christmas Display in Mercy Ridge. This could be her year to win, if only she can come up with an idea better than Caroline Sauer, the reigning queen of yard decorations for three years running. Wayne, Caroline’s husband, isn’t sure how to handle himself when Caroline decides to go to Spokane for several days to shop for her display materials. He can’t cook and ends up eating all his meals at Sami’s diner. When he realizes he doesn’t miss his wife as much as he probably should, he starts a journey of self-discovery and a second chance at love.

Belle's Christmas - Marilyn Conner Miles Annabelle—Belle to her friends—returns to small town Mercy Ridge feeling like a failure.

Single parent Gavin Levine and his emotionally troubled young daughter, Gabby, travel from Seattle for a long, end-of-summer weekend visit to the Saddle Up dude ranch. Gabby becomes attached to a horse named Smokey, and the dude ranch owner's friend, Belle. Could be, Gavin has too. Problem is, when they return home, Belle and the horse are clear across the state. When the school year begins, Gabby just cries in class, Gavin doesn't know what to do and Belle still doesn't have a teaching job. How can she possibly help them from Mercy Ridge?
