Her New Year's Wish

By Tia Marlee

Anne Masters has spent the whole year being happy for other people. Gabby and Heath are engaged. The salon finally turned a profit. Her own love life is a cat named Shelby and a standing weekly appointment with Mrs. Willowby.

Anne came home to Piney Brook to take over her aunt's salon, and she's spent years proving to every woman in town that she's worth the chair. The business finally works. Her love life is a different story - and at this rate Mrs. Willowby will find someone before she does.

Hudson Parks flirts with everyone and means it with no one. His mother left at Christmas when he was a baby, and his dad never hung the lights again. Being the fun one is safer. The fun one doesn't get left.

Then he starts finding reasons to stop by the salon. He stops being able to think about anyone else. And then someone else asks Anne out - and Hudson has until New Year's to work out whether being alone was ever really his choice, or just the thing he settled for.

Her New Year's Wish is a friends-to-more, small-town Christmas and New Year's romance with low angst, level 2 physical intimacy, and zero swearing.

Perfect for fans of friends to lovers, small-town holidays, reformed flirts, New Year's Eve kisses, and sweet romance with a guaranteed happily ever after.

Author's Note: Each book in the Piney Brook Wishes series is an interconnected standalone and can be read in any order, but if you love sweet friendships and seeing characters grow, I recommend starting with His Christmas Wish.
