Previously published in A Winter Wonderland Acclaimed New York Times bestselling author Kristina McMorris ignites the spirit of the holidays with a tale of love, change, and the magic of memoriesâold and new . . . Toss, repair, sell, repeat. Most of the time, people are grateful for estate liquidator Jenna Matthewsâ organizing services. Not Reece Porter, her new clientâs handsome but grouchy grandson. As far as heâs concerned Jenna is a vulture, picking through his late grandfatherâs treasures, during the holidays, no less. Personally, Jenna isnât one for Christmas nostalgia, or any kind of nostalgia. Plus, sheâs just doing her job. But when she and Reece are drawn together in an emergency, it becomes clear thereâs a whole other kind of tension between them, one thatâs pure electricity. And when Jenna discovers keepsakes that suggest an intriguing Porter family secret, unwrapping the mystery leads both Jenna and Reese to the greatest gifts of the holidaysâand the truth in their hearts. . .
