Vivian Armstrong moved to Revival Ranch to be closer to her brother and be a part of his ranch that offers a place for wounded soldiers to work through their PTSD. Taking over the mess hall, Vivian imbues her cafeteria with sunshine and positivity. She loves feeding and befriending all the wounded warriors. All except one...
Eli Sterling's injuries as a SEAL are the least of his problems. He's convinced his PTSD makes him a danger to all around him, so he stays isolated on Revival Ranch, ignoring everyone's friendly overtures—especially Vivian's. Her brother is one of the founders of Revival. The last thing Eli wants is to cause trouble.
But bright, cheerful Vivian isn't giving up, and when Eli has to help her in the mess hall for Thanksgiving and Christmas, Eli finds himself opening up to the absolute last woman he should.
It'll take some Christmas magic to heal this injured cowboy's heart, but Vivian's not giving up without a fight.
