Home For Christmas is a "return to hometown" story with a lot of hidden angst, but ultimately, it's about forgiveness and letting go of old pains in order to love anew.
Quinn Riordan had been away from her hometown of Chagrin Falls for TEN YEARS, after losing EVERYTHING to her more beautiful sister, including her first ever love. But now, Aunt Fiona had a bad fall and her leg broken. She came back... Only to find her aunt has a boarder, Peter Kimball, a teacher in the local school. Peter doesn't understand how Fiona could love Quinn who stayed away for ten years, and seeing Quinn... was a bit of a shock: Quinn is quite likable, not a vindictive scorned woman he'd imagined. But Peter lost the two people he loved most and will not be able to love again. But with the upcoming holidays, can they let go of their hurts in the past, and see a way to embrace the future... and each other?
The story was quite satisfying to read, as they each managed to let go of their pains, forgive those who needed them, and thus was able to open their heart for new love, right around the Holidays.
