For fans of The Holiday,  Gilmore Girls, and Practical Magic.  This one's for you. A witchy nanny. A broody single dad. A Christmas tree farm full of wonder, second chances, and just enough Maren family mischief to change everything. Remy Bennett hasn't believed in magic or Christmas in a long time. Not since he became a single dad overnight and buried his heart beneath flannel, firewood, and the endless to-do list of running Bennett Tree Farm. With a business to keep afloat and a five-year-old daughter to raise, Remy's holiday season is usually spent dodging carols, surviving the crowds, and keeping his distance from anything that might hurt again. Joy, love, mistletoe? No, thank you. He's grumpy. He's guarded. And he's determined to power through the holidays in peace. But this year, Junie wants twinkle lights, cookie baking, and bedtime stories that don't come from tired dads with callused hands. So Remy does the one thing he swore he wouldn't. He hires a nanny. Ivy Maren is a little too bright. A little too chaotic. And maybe, just maybe... a little bit magical. With glitter on her cheeks and warmth in her bones, Ivy turns the entire farm upside down. Suddenly, the scent of cinnamon and cedar fills the air. Mistletoe appears in places Remy swears he didn't hang. Junie's laughter rings through the farmhouse like sleigh bells. And Ivy, with her soft sweaters, secret smiles, and something almost enchanted in her touch, begins to thaw the ice around Remy's heart. He tells himself it's just the season. That this strange, shining girl is just here for a job. That once the new year comes, the magic will fade. But Ivy isn't just here to care for Junie. She's here to rewrite what Christmas means to a lonely little girl, to a tree farm that's lost its sparkle, and to the man who doesn't know how to believe anymore. This holiday, love might be the most magical thing of all. ���� For readers who crave flannel-wearing heroes, found family, and a little magic under their mistletoe.
