At the Maple Sugar Inn in snowy Vermont, owner Hattie Coleman specializes in making her guests’ dreams come true. But this Christmas, her only dream is making it through the festive season. Widowed far too young, and exhausted from juggling the hotel with being a dedicated single mom, Hattie is close to the edge. She can only hope that her recent heart-stopping kiss with close friend Noah won’t tip her over it ... Then Erica, Claudia and Anna check in for their annual book club holiday. They’re bonded by years of friendship and a deep love of books, yet it's clear to Hattie their emotional baggage is piled higher than the presents under her Christmas tree! But nothing prepares her for how deeply her own story is about to become entwined in theirs. And as the holidays draw closer, can these four women come together to improve each other's lives and make this the start of a whole new chapter? Note that in the US, Canada and Australia the title of this book is The Book Club Hotel!
