Now a Harlequin Movie, Hometown Holiday! Previously published as The Maverick's Holiday Masquerade.

As the holidays approach in Rust Creek Falls, Kristen Dalton, the resident romantic, is turning her thoughts to second chances. A recent fling with seemingly perfect cowboy Ryan Rourke nearly broke her heart when he turned and mysteriously left town for good - or so she thought. But now Ryan is back, just in time to pick up where he and Kristen left off.

Everyone is betting they'll be engaged before Christmas Eve. But Ryan isn't ready to hang the holly just yet. He's got to come clean to the woman he loves. Will Kristen want to meet him under the mistletoe when she discovers the secret Ryan's been keeping?
