Just South of Christmas

Willow Beach might be a small coastal town, but its annual Winter Fest is a huge, joyous celebration. However, this year, wrapping presents isn't the only problem the Baldwins have to face. A relationship reaching its "now or never" moment, a vandal causing chaos at the Inn, and—most heart-wrenching of all—a life-threatening accident that throws plans for a baby into question...

Things look difficult for Georgia Baldwin and her children this winter, but one thing's for certain: no matter what happens, they'll always have each other.

Christmas in Willow Beach is Georgia Baldwin's favorite time of year. What's not to love? Lights on all the houses, the scent of peppermint lattes wafting from The Roast, and all the fun and festivities that come with the town's annual Winter Fest. Home has never felt cozier.

But not everything is sleigh bells and sweetness in the Baldwins' world.

Tasha and Eddie are going through a rough patch. With the whole town pressuring them towards marriage, Tasha starts to wonder what she has to do to get Eddie to finally pop the question.

Drew, on the other hand, is desperate to get married—if only his girlfriend's father will give him his blessing.

Melanie's baby fever is running hot despite the winter chill, though her boyfriend Colin isn't quite as enthusiastic. But a horrific accident leaves their future—and Colin's life—very much in question.

Georgia is trying her best to hold her family together. But something ugly and mysterious is happening in town, and it's forcing Georgia to face an impossible question: is it time to sell the Willow Beach Inn?

Just South of Christmas is Book 4 in the Willow Beach Inn series, but can be read as a standalone. Whether you've already fallen in love with the town or are arriving for the first time, come on in—the cocoa is hot, the fire is burning, and everyone is delighted to see you.
