Which is why she rarely makes the trip home to the Midwest for the holidays. After all, she has plenty to keep her busy—namely, her duties as a set decorator on a TV sitcom.
But this December, Lauren‘s brother and his wife are expecting a baby, so her brother arranges a ride home for her with his good friend, Will.
Unfortunately for Lauren, she’s been trying to forget college baseball coach and childhood crush Will Sinclair for more than ten years.
Now, thanks to her fear of flying, she’s stuck in a car with him from California to Illinois.
She’s circumspect and organized. He’s flirty and spontaneous.
She’s convinced that people don’t change. He’s trying to prove to her (and himself) that he has.
On this cross-country road trip, they’ll both discover that history doesn’t exactly repeat itself. . . but like any good Christmas carol, it does have a second verse."

Oh be still my Christmas loving heart! The queen of Christmas movies hit it out of the ball park with this one!
Such a perfect Christmas story! And I LOVED the road-trip plot (especially the Route 66 theme - major sentimental value for me)
The “frost” between the characters at the beginning felt realistic once we found out WHY Lauren was so standoffish to Will. The past was a little to painful for her. BUT I do love that they finally talked it out and communication, once it started, actually went somewhere.
I loved the lesson and reminder of grace! How much it abounds. EVERYONE is deserving of a second chance!
It was a sweet story with a lot packed into a short amount of pages, but I loved every minute of it! I really hope we get more Christmas stories from Courtney some day!
5/5 stars
