Velkommen tilbage til den lille by Avalon ved bredden af Willow Lake. Juleforberedelserne er i fuld gang, og for to personer bliver det den mest mindeværdige jul nogensinde... Bibliotekaren Maureen har endelig fået chancen for at være vært for og instruere Avalons årlige juleshow, og hun er fast besluttet på at gøre den virkelig spektakulær. Problemet er bare at Eddie Haven, en langhåret, tatoveret tidligere barnestjerne, der hader jul af hele sit hjerte, instruerer julespillet sammen med Maureen. Maureen og Eddie støder sammen om hver eneste detalje, lige fra castingen til Eddies selvproducerede musik. Forsøger han at ødelægge showet bare for at drille hende? Og hvordan er det muligt, at de to rent faktisk falder for hinanden?
Baseballhåbet Bo Crutcher er meget tæt på at få en professionel kontrakt. Det vil sige, indtil livet kaster ham en ubehagelig skruebold. Da AJ, sønnen han aldrig har mødt, pludselig står på hans dørtrin, bliver Bos liv for altid forandret. Og det går hurtigt op for ham, at han får brug for al den hjælp, han kan få. Da Kimberly van Dorn blev ansat til at kreere en blidere Bo i medierne, forventede hun at møde den sædvanlige, overfladiske atlet-type, hun er vant til at håndtere. Men Bo er villig til at ofre alt for sin sårbare søn, og i løbet af en åndeløst smuk vinter ved den frosne Willow Lake indser hun, at hun stadig har meget at lære om at sætte kærligheden først.

Men da hun overlever en gidselsituation, bliver det tydeligt for hende, hvad der i virkeligheden betyder mest: børnene derhjemme, som hun elsker. Fuld af fortrydelse vender hun tilbage til den idylliske landsby Avalon ved bredden af Willow Lake, fast besluttet på at reparere forholdet til sin familie. I Avalon får Sophie øjnene op for de overraskende glæder ved livet i den lille by – inklusive en uventet tiltrækning til Noah Shepherd, den lokale dyrlæge. Noah har magiske evner, når det kommer til at helbrede alt med fire ben, men han har aldrig haft samme held med kvinder. Men Sophies hjerte har brug for en helende hånd ... og både hun og Noah har brug for en chance for lykke.
