Book Description

Series: Cape Light | Publication Date: November 3, 2009

In Cape Light, Christmas brings unexpected gifts that will never be forgotten.

This Christmas, the people of Cape Light reflect on their past and revel in their future.

David has returned home after serving in Afghanistan to find his widowed father, Jack, remarried, and a young stepsister in the house. Further, his own physical injuries may never heal. He's having trouble joining in the cheer of the Christmas season-but soon realizes that he will have to heal not only his body but also his heart.

Meanwhile, Lillian Warwick remains fiercely independent and wily, resisting help from her daughters. When the tables are turned and her old friend Dr. Ezra Elliot is the one in need, Lillian rises to the challenge. Never expecting to love again, she cares for Ezra and begins to wonder if it's possible to let someone else into her life.
