Emily Springer, widowed mother of one, decided to leave Leavenworth, Washington, to spend  Christmas  with her daughter in Boston.

Charles Brewster, history professor, curmudgeon and resident of Boston, wants to avoid Christmas altogether.  He figures a prison town should be nice and quiet over the holidays-except he’s thinking of the wrong Leavenworth!

Through an internet site, Charles and Emily arrange to swap houses for  the holiday.  So Emily goes to Boston – and discovers that her daughter has gone to Flordia. And Charles arrives in Leavenworth to discover that it’s not the prison town -it’s Santa’s Village!  The place is full of Christmas trees, Christmas music and …elves.

Meanwhile, Emily’s friend Faith Kerrigan travels to Leavenworth to visit her and instead finds Charles the grinch.  Then Charles’s brother, Ray , shows up at his home in Boston to discover that he isn’t there- but Emily is.

Through all the mix-ups and misunderstandings, amid the chaos and confusion, romance begins to emerge in  unexpected ways.  Because everything changes at Christmas. 

Check out this book or any others at the library and enjoy!
