Christmas at Reedy Falls

Coming October 29, 2024

When Mamie Morrow, a fledgling Charleston journalist, is offered an assignment covering the Grand Bohemian Lodge in Greenville, South Carolina, at Christmastime, she jumps at the chance. Her grandfather recently passed away and left her a mysterious box of objects from the time she spent with him in New Mexico when she was three. Mamie has zero recollection of her time with her grandfather, but she now knows that he was Navajo—and as the majestic Grand Bohemian is filled with Native American art, she hopes being there will help her regain those memories.

Robert Fitzpatrick is an upstart photographer from South Boston. Through equal parts inspiration and perspiration, he’s managed to compile a stunning portfolio, and he’s just relocated to slower-paced Charleston for its lush beauty and creative community. He’s also looking for the one—a girl to whom he can give his whole heart forever. But he harbors family secrets of his own.

Rob is smitten with Mamie’s energy and pluck, but to Mamie, career comes first. As Christmas Day approaches, the two grapple with the complications that arise when dreams confront reality—and witness the Christmas magic that can happen when you put your faith in love.

“ …much like a Hallmark Christmas movie, complete with a meet-cute, a workplace romance, and love at first sight, which will appeal to genre fans.”
—KIRKUS REVIEWS

“Elizabeth Sumner Wafler skillfully places the reader smack into the heart of a story brimming with southern charm and holiday atmosphere. This novel will have you falling head over heels for Mamie and Rob as they fall for each other. Equal parts funny and intriguing, this heartwarming story—about finding love where you least expect it—is truly a gift that keeps on giving!”
—CHRISTINA CONSOLINO, author of Rewrite the Stars and The Weight We Carry
