From Booklist
The unconscious, badly injured captain of the damaged steamboat Capric is brought to Annie Dunbar's Willow Shoals boarding house to recuperate, and when Isaac finally awakens, he realizes he knows the gentle angel tending his wounds. Several years ago she ran off with most of Isaac's money and his best friend. Now the man Annie hurt the most has the power to destroy the new life she worked so hard to establish. The more time Isaac spends with Annie, the more it seems as though she has changed, but Isaac isn't sure if he can take a chance on a future together with Annie. Letting go of the past, learning to forgive oneself and others, and the power of friendship all play an important part in Pritchard's richly emotional, quietly powerful holiday romance, which beautifully celebrates the true meaning of Christmas.
