"In the wake of devastation, can the spirit of Christmas bring healing and hope? The once-idyllic island of Maui is left scarred after raging fire sweeps through Lahaina, shattering the lives of its residents and neighbors. Among them is Ava Briscoe, who, along with her family, is grappling with the ruins left behind. But as the festival season dawns, a glimmer of hope emerges. From the ashes of tragedy, the Briscoe family--along with their extended kin and the larger island community--come together in an uplifting tale of resilience, love, and new beginnings. As they navigate the path of recovery, they discover that the true essence of Christmas isn't found in the things we've lost, but in the bonds that remain unbroken."--
