About this item

A young woman tries to heal a rift in her elderly pen pal's family in time for Christmas, all while falling in love - and maybe even reuniting with her own family - in this dazzling romance from the author of Always, in December and One Last Gift. Sometimes it takes a stranger to bring you back to yourself.. Ever since a car accident tore her family apart, Holly has been part of a lonely-hearts holiday letter-writing club. Each December, she writes to a stranger who is also spending Christmas alone, and receives a letter from another lonely person in return. . Usually, the letters go unanswered. That's the point - the letters are anonymous, and the senders write whatever is in their heart. But this year, the letter Holly receives is different; not only is the letter full of a grief she knows all too well, but its writer, Emma, mentions a place that Holly has visited.
