A festive story from Debbie Macomber, international bestselling author of the Cedar Cove and Rose Harbor series.
Julia is infuriated by her grouchy neighbour, Cain. He doesn't even seem able to exchange basic pleasantries when they bump into each other.
But, upon the suggestion of her best friend, Cammie, Julia thinks she knows how she can use his grouchiness to her advantage - and maybe help him too. She needs to start a successful blog in order to clinch the perfect job she is vying for, and now she has a subject to write about. Over the next twelve days she is going to kill Cain with kindness - and festive cheer - and document it for all to read about.
But as the experiment goes on, Julia realises she has underestimated the effect it would have on Cain, and on their relationship. Things soon begin to take an unexpected turn . . .
