Her plan? Survive the festive season with only her rescue dog, Ernest, for company.

When a devastating family crisis turns Alex’s fragile new life upside down, she has a choice to make. Should she batten down the hatches or let go of her perfect façade long enough to discover that a Christmas filled with new friends and real love is the greatest gift of all?
