  Naomi has started to think that she isn't meant to find love, but she might receive more than she ever hoped for this Christmas.
  
  Twenty-four-year-old Naomi King, who has been burned twice by love, has all but given up on marriage and children. As Christmas approaches―a time of family, faith, and hope for many others―Naomi is more certain than ever her life will be spent as an old maid, helping with the family's quilting business and taking care of her eight siblings. Then she meets Caleb, a young widower with a 7-year-old daughter, and her world is once again turned upside-down.
