Mystic Ridge is a small town set deep in the mountains of Tennessee. The townsfolk go out of their way to embrace everyone with cookies, kittens and a warm welcome. They enjoy nothing more than setting folks properly on their destined path.
You’ll meet Violet and her invisible friend Winifred, who lived on the open prairie in the eighteen hundreds. Although she’s just a ghost, she longs for a second chance at life. Millie owns the local antique shop and assists folks in finding items they misplaced centuries earlier. Unbeknownst to her mother, four-year-old Ruby gives life and death advice.
Poovie Lamay is the local social media mogul and supermom with a huge appreciation for life. She tweets and blogs and sells her musing to outlets worldwide and lives a ridiculously happy life—as long as it can be from her own home.
Intuitive Mariah and Daisy Gilbert are excited as new residents to Mystic Ridge, and swiftly learn they were brought there to assist a needy nun with an odd problem.
You’ll meet Josephine Even who has a backyard full of ghosts from the civil war, each one requesting unique assistance. And of course, Mystic Ridge’s most famous resident is Sister Crystal Grace who was lost in the mountainside for many weeks as a child. As a pillar of the community, no one knows she’s been gallivanting through time and now yearns to leave Mystic Ridge forever.
And amidst all the unusual occurrences, almost all of the cats and kittens born in Mystic Ridge are solid white and occasionally heroic.
For as long as she can remember, La’tiera has known her purpose, her destiny. As the Bearer of the Eye, she will wait until the appointed time then sacrifice herself to the demons so her people will be safe.
Then, as the time approaches, she is snatched from her home by strangers and is told it is for her protection. These strangers tell her she is not to die but must rather fight to live in order for the world to be saved. La’tiera will not be swayed, however. Despite their clever lies, she will follow her destiny and do what is required.
Dazzler Spitfire is an elf on a mission. She has until Christmas to pull herself together, keep her magic, and her life. She heads to Holly, a town devoted to Christmas and home to her best friend. Together, they craft a plan to stay one step ahead of those wanting to bring her in front of the North Pole Review Board for trial.
Todd Dugan knows magic only works for others. His divorce from Dazzler’s cousin proves it. He’s fine tending to the reindeer for the western leg of Santa’s midnight ride. When he agrees to chair the holiday committee in Holly, he’ll prove human technology is just as good as magic.
Neither counts on the Dugan family curse: When a Dugan meets his mate, the lights in Holly will fall dark.
On the eve of Thanksgiving, the town’s mayor demands a demonstration to prove the Christmas decorations are behaving as they should. The tech works until Dazzler shows up, bringing his ex-wife with her. Now the town is determined to reunite Todd and his ex-wife.
But Todd’s thoughts are on Dazzler. A single kiss decides his fate. Dazzler sets out to seduce him. Is he willing to risk their friendship for something more? His heart makes the choice for him. For a brief moment, he has it all—friendship, love, and magic. Then Dazzler loses her magical abilities and gets sick. Worse, in a freak sleigh accident, Dazzler reduces the town’s Christmas displays to ash and cinders.
