Anna Holley, the third of four sisters, has always felt a little bit forgotten. A family tragedy when she was a child had her retreating deep into shyness, and social anxiety kept her on the fringes of the cozy chaos of the busy vicarage.
After several years away from home, Anna returns for ChristmasâĶ and an important announcement from her father. As much as she once loved the village, coming back is hard and puts Annaâs social capabilities to the test.
Avoiding her sistersâ bossy questions, she heads out to the local pub one night, and meets a handsome stranger nursing a pint. Somehow, unburdened by expectations, Simon seems like the perfect person to spill all her secrets toâincluding a hopeless, long-held crush on her sisterâs boyfriend. Confident sheâll never see him again, Anna returns homeâĶ only to discover the next day that Simon is actually her fatherâs new curate!
