The Greatest Christmas Gift
Contractor Brady Buchanon can’t wait to surprise single mom Abby Webster with his company’s Christmas home makeover prize. But once he does, the struggling waitress turns him down flat! Raised in foster care, Abby won’t accept charity. Yet when her dilapidated porch almost injures her daughter, Abby finally agrees to Brady’s offer. As the hardworking bachelor pushes to finish the house in time for Christmas, he starts falling for Abby and her little girl. With the holidays in sight, Brady wonders if Abby will not only accept her beautiful new home, but also his wish to make her his wife…
“Which house model do you like best?” Brady asked.
He glanced at Abby. “Come on. Stop worrying and get happy. This is supposed to be the part where you get all excited and make me feel like a hero.”
Her mouth lifted slightly at his silliness, and he felt better.
“I love that one,” she said, pointing at the plans.
“The country cottage?” He’d chosen that one for her the minute he’d seen it. It was simple and charming. Like her. “Look at the interior plan, too. We can change it if you like, but it’s perfect for your daughter’s needs.”
She looked up at him with those soft brown eyes. His chest expanded. She liked it. She liked it a lot. He realized then that he’d been overanxious about this home makeover, afraid she’d regret letting him barge into her life and turn it upside down.
“You think of everything, don’t you?” she said, smiling.
That was the reaction he’d been looking for.
