Maria Anne Davis was on her way to an exciting career as a chef in Dallas, until a terrible car accident left her blind. Ever resilient, Maria has reinvented her life on her own terms, starting a business out of her home kitchen, selling her jams and jellies to the local grocery.
Maria loves romance novels, and despite her bold spirit, she fears she’ll never have a big love affair like ones her heroines experience. That is, until she realizes how much she cares about the quiet Wes Whitman, the owner of the grocery.
Wes can’t keep Maria’s wildly popular jam on his shelves—just like he can’t keep the fierce, beautiful Maria out of his thoughts. But how could a firecracker like Maria come to love a shy, nervous man like him? Maybe all they need is a grand affair. Wes needs to convince Maria that some affairs last forever, though—just in time for Christmas.

MY REVIEW
This is a novella in the Ransom Canyon series. Although I think most of the novels in this series can be read independently I would recommend that this one is read after reading Indigo Lake as this one follows the sister of Dakota who is a main character in the Indigo Lake. We also see a bit of backstory of Maria in that story that will give a lot more depth to reading this novella.
What I loved and what I always enjoy with Jodi Thomas novels is the romance. It is obvious with this story that feelings have been growing for some time before we start this story, so when we join Maria the romance that follows feels natural.
A lovely romantic story that I would recommend picking up after Indigo Lake.
