One unique antiques shop.
The coziest holiday season of their lives.
Wildly different half sisters Maggie, Simone, and Star have hardly seen one another since their sprightly summers at Rowan Thorp, their eccentric father Augustus’s home. Known for his bustling approach to the knick-knack shop he ran, Augustus was loved by all and known by none, not even his daughters.
Now, years later, the three estranged women are called upon for the reading of Augustus’s will and quickly realize he's orchestrated a series of hoops through which they must jump to unlock their inheritance—the last thing any of them want to do. But Maggie and Star desperately need the money. And who would Simone be to resist?
Through hilarious goose chases, small-town mishaps, and one heart-warming winter solstice celebration, love, hope, and reconcilation is in the air, if only the three sisters can let themselves grasp it.

Starred review from August 1, 2023
In the latest holiday-themed romance novel from Bayliss (Meet Me Under the Mistletoe), readers meet the North sisters, Maggie, Simone, and Star, estranged in recent years, who have returned to the idyllic English village of Rowan Thorp to settle their father's estate following his recent death. However, in order to receive their inheritance, they must band together to throw the village's traditional winter solstice festival by searching for clues hidden in the antiques shop that has been in their family for generations. The sisters are each coping with romantic and personal struggles of their own: Simone and her wife are dealing with infertility, Star is reeling from a recent breakup, and Maggie is facing eviction and must decide whether to commit to friend-with-benefits Joe. Their family dynamics are one of the most compelling parts of this closed-door romance. VERDICT Readers will be captured by the charming setting and the three unique and captivating love stories, as richly drawn characters, dynamic storytelling, and one possibly magical shop cat truly make this a December to remember for both the North sisters and readers of this delightful, heartfelt holiday romance. Perfect for fans of Sophie Cousens and Josie Silver.--Whitney Kramer
