     This Christmas, the Campbell sisters each have a wish: Tess is hoping to get through this first Christmas without her husband and rebuild her life as a single mother. She doesn’t know what she would have done this past year without the support of her late husband’s best friend, but as their connection starts to build, her future feels more uncertain than ever. Carrie has reason to believe that her boyfriend is finally ready to pop the question. But when their big talk turns out to be a break-up instead of a proposal, she is forced to take a hard look at the life she has built with him, and the one she can have without him. Jules has finally found a job she loves, and she’s expecting a promotion by the year-end—not a pink slip. To make matters worse, her closest friend has decided that this is a good time to tell her that he’s in love with her, and now she has to decide if she feels the same…or risk losing him forever. With their lives at crossroads, the sisters reunite for a holiday in Winter Lake for the first time in five years. But when old wounds are opened and guarded secrets are revealed, the Campbell sisters soon discover that this Christmas is going to be nothing like they had planned, but it will certainly be one to remember.
