A perfect gift that captures the spirit of the season, USA Today bestselling author Nancy Naigle's A Heartfelt Christmas Promise celebrates the holidays, small-town traditions, and the generosity of love between two lost souls who find everything they ever wanted in each other.

Vanessa Larkin was supposed to be spending Christmas in Paris, France on a business trip she hoped to enjoy as a working vacation. Instead, she's been assigned to Fraser Hills, North Carolina--home of the Best Fruitcake in the USA--to convert her company's property into warehouse space and shut down Porter's, the fruitcake factory. Offering retirement packages and selling locals on new job opportunities may not spread holiday cheer, but Vanessa believes she's helping secure the town's future.

Mike Marshall's family founded Porter's. For decades, the factory served as the lifeblood of the community until his grandfather sold the business to a Chicago corporation. The sale cost the town its independence--and the Marshalls their family ties. A horse farmer, Mike was never involved with his grandfather's company, but still felt Fraser Hills lost part of its identity. And as a widower raising a teenage daughter, he's suffered enough losses in one lifetime. News of the factory's closing means losing another piece of the town's legacy.

Far from the skyscrapers and rapid pace of the city, Vanessa finds herself enjoying the easygoing rhythms of rural living. With Mike as her guide, she learns to appreciate the simple pleasures found in shared holiday festivities among friends. Fraser Hills is a town she is growing to love--and Mike is someone she is falling in love with. Now all Vanessa needs is a Christmas miracle to give her newfound friends and home a gift they'll cherish for many New Years to come.

Ryder Bolt is haunted by the tragic loss of his wife and young son seven years ago. Thankfully, ranching keeps Ryder busy, and spending time with his niece and nephew--whose venue, The Wedding Ranch, has become a popular tourist destination--keeps him from getting lonely.

When Lorri and Ryder met, love was the last thing they were looking for. When they're together, smiles come easier and burdens feel lighter, and both are embracing the possibility of something deeper.

But when a long-buried revelation surfaces, the fate that brought them together threatens to tear them apart.
