Christmas at Silver Ridge

Book excerpt: A holiday scavenger hunt in the town of Silver Ridge brings a stroll down memory lane for Janey Dixon, but she doesn't realize who's waiting on the other end. Is she ready to let her walls down and take a leap of faith? Karice writes Christmas the way I want to live Christmas! Janey Dixon loves being a reporter for Silver Ridge's newspaper, and the job is especially fun during the holidays. Whether she has an excuse to visit the local bake sale or lend a hand with the holiday bazaar, she loves having the inside scoop on everything Christmas in Silver Ridge. It also makes going home to an empty house a little less chilly on those snowy nights when she is stuffed with sugar cookies and gingerbread. Besides, Janey's never been great at sharing, compromise, or dating, and as she's been told many times that dating is full of compromise and sharing, so she's content with her gingerbread men, and extremely grateful for her best friend, Gabe. However, when one of the editors at the paper decides to get in on a national trend and put together a Christmas scavenger hunt for the little town, Janey finds herself in the whirlwind of festivities. But as the tasks are checked off and Christmas is nearing, she can't help but notice everything seems to be centered around love. It isn't until she moves toward the last clue, that the pieces start to fit together, and she realizes she's been missing out on something she never knew she wanted. Love. And the man who holds the key to her heart is ready to unlock a little Christmas magic if she's ready to take the leap of faith.
