An abandoned baby plays matchmaker in this heartwarming holiday story in the Jewell Cove series.
When Charlie and Dave discover an abandoned baby in the church manger, their first date takes an unconventional turn. Before workaholic Charlie can say “Baby Jesus,” she finds herself providing foster care for the newborn while still tending to her medical practice. Ex-SEAL and single dad Dave Ricker is used to adjusting on the fly and turns out to be a surprising help. Clearly there are hidden depths to the hunky shipbuilder…
Dave feels himself falling for Charlie, especially when he sees how she dotes on the baby. But she wants promises he can’t make, security he can’t offer. He’s already failed as a husband and father once and vowed never again.
When the baby’s birth mother is located, Charlie’s world falls apart. Dave gives her comfort, but can he take the greatest risk of all and offer her forever—in time for a perfect Christmas?

This was such a heartwarming Christmas romance. Charlene (Charlie) Yang is a driven Dr. who has moved to Jewell Cove to get away from the high-powered life her parents wanted her to have. She is happy being a small town physician. It is a little hard to fit in when you are the new person in town though.
As she's helping to put the doll in the manger for the town's Christmas tree lighting, she meets Dave, an ex-seal and they have an immediate connection. He shows up again the next day for the Christmas tree lighting, but this time as they go to leave they discover the manager doll has been replaced with a real baby!
They are flung together was they deal with looking after the baby and the romance begins to develop, but they both have baggage they need to deal with too.
