Manchester, 1941. Kept apart by war work, bombs and blackouts, Lorna and her beloved George cherish every precious moment together. George's vital role working for the War Office keeps him in London, while Lorna rolls up her sleeves to do her duty each day at the Manchester Salvage Depot, alongside her dearest friends, Sally and Betty.

Das ergreifende Abenteuer einer eigenwilligen und wagemutigen Frau – nach einer wahren Begebenheit: Susanna, Malerin aus der Schweiz, reist in den Westen und trifft Sitting Bull, Häuptling der Sioux. Alte Gewissheiten gelten nicht mehr, neue sind noch nicht zu haben. In New York wird die Brooklyn Bridge eröffnet, Edisons Glühbirnen erleuchten die Stadt. Mittendrin Susanna aus Basel, die mit ihrer Mutter nach Amerika ausgewandert ist. Maschinen erobern die Welt, im Westen kämpfen Ureinwohner ums Überleben.

Darum soll dieses Jahr alles perfekt werden: Ein Adventswochenende im romantischen Backkurs auf dem Land – inklusive Plätzchenduft, Kaminfeuer und einer To-do-Liste voller Besinnlichkeit. Doch der Plan gerät ins Wanken, als ausgerechnet Ben, chaotischer Weihnachtsmuffel mit Grinch-Charme, ihr Zimmernachbar wird. Er wollte eigentlich gar nicht backen – und erst recht nicht mit jemandem, der Frühstückszeiten farblich markiert.

Jule hatte sich ihren Weihnachtsurlaub anders vorgestellt: Kaminfeuer, Stille, Zimttee und maximal ein Schneemann. Stattdessen steht plötzlich Noel vor der Tür – ihr Ex-Schwarm mit dem charmanten Grinsen und einer Familie, die chaotischer nicht sein könnte.

Beatrice, the widowed marchioness of Castleton, is in possession of a powerful secret. She knows all about shifters; her horrible late husband being one of them. At any moment, Beatrice could take advantage of her secret over the prince and the pack - that is, unless her entanglement becomes a binding one. A marriage between the duke of Osborn and Beatrice isn't what either of them wants, but the attraction is mutual. Even so, it will take much more than a shared bed to open up their hearts to one another.

Susanna Greyshott's family were once wealthy and well-to-do, but they have fallen upon hard times, and she and her Mama have been forced to make changes and do the best they can under the circumstances. But it has made Susanna hard as flint, unwilling to forgive and even less willing to open her heart. She is quite prepared to move to Texas, where she believes she may finally be able to build a life for her and her Mama where they are beholden to no-one, but a face from her past could ruin it all. Can she truly let herself accept all the benefits and happiness that Faith Creek longs to offer? Will she learn to forgive and accept the love that has always been all around her?
