A New Girl in Town, Grumpy/Sunshine, Christmas Romance! "Four hundred! That's me!" The old man lowered the thin paintbrush he'd been using to repaint the number on the population sign, dipped his gray-white head down, and tapped his glasses lower on his nose. "That so?" Aria Winston loved her childhood as a world-traveling military brat, but it's time to settle down, and Thankful, Washington, is the perfect place! She loves its charm and proximity to her new custom umbrella shop, RAINERY. Best of all, Thankful has Ethan Kendell. That is, when the gorgeous boat builder isn't off brooding about her motives for befriending his grandfather, Bill. A family tragedy when he was eleven has given Ethan laser focus for two things: to build the safest boats he can, and to protect his grandfather no matter what. The new girl, Aria, is the one hitch in his agenda. Not only because she's a pretty distraction, but because she might just be after his grandfather's money.
