A grieving widower. A desperate mother. One Christmas that will change everything.

When Maria Santos and her young son arrive in the snowy mountain town of Leadville, Colorado, they carry little more than a suitcase and a prayer. The job she hoped for has been filled, and the cold wind bites through the thin fabric of her dress. Desperate, she shelters in an alley, whispering a plea for God’s mercy.

Reuben Turner has lived alone since the night he buried his wife three years ago. Work has been his refuge, silence his companion. But when he’s told of a woman and child freezing in the snow, he cannot turn them away. What begins as an act of kindness soon fills his home—and his heart—with something he thought he’d lost forever.

As the Christmas season unfolds, laughter returns to his quiet house, and Maria begins to believe in miracles again. Yet both carry the scars of the past.

Can two broken souls find the courage to open their hearts to love, or will fear keep them apart when Christmas morning dawns?
