Overview

Sarah Hendricks has built a quiet, fulfilling life in the charming town of Greenville, far removed from the ghosts of her college years. But when Elena Caldwell—her former bully and the source of so much pain—unexpectedly reappears during the holiday season, Sarah is forced to confront a past she thought she’d left behind.

Elena’s return is as puzzling as it is unsettling. With an air of regret and determination, she seeks to make amends, but her reasons remain frustratingly unclear. As snow blankets the town and Christmas magic fills the air, Sarah finds herself caught between the defenses she’s relied on for years and the pull of the woman who once hurt her.

Why has Elena come back now, after so many years? And can two people with such a fractured history ever hope to find common ground? Set against the backdrop of twinkling lights and Greenville’s winter charm, this story of second chances and unexpected connections will keep you guessing until the final page.
