Publisher's summary

Come home to the heart of a frontier town....

Linda Lael Miller created magic in five novels set in Springwater, Montana - and in the delightful characters whose lives and hearts entwine in each of her enchanting tales. Now, come back to Springwater for an unforgettable holiday - and join in the tears and the smiles when a prodigal son returns to find love at long last.

When Jack McLaughlin drifted into Springwater, he carried little more with him than his bitter memories of the Civil War and the shattering secret of a promise betrayed in the heat of battle. Wounded soul-deep, and fearing the wrath of his own parents, Jack has hidden his identity and come to Springwater to see his mother and father from afar, even if he can't bear to face them. Taking odd jobs and keeping a low profile, Jack finds a safe haven at the town's new rooming house.

Olivia Darling had never done anything impulsive - until she left the east and opened a boarding house in Springwater. But still an outsider at heart, and struggling to make a success of her business, Olivia finds herself turning to the other newcomer in town, the rough-hewn and embittered man she's taken in. As the Christmas season brings them together, Olivia finds in Jack's arms a passionate sweetness she never knew existed. And with the stunning revelation of Jack's true identity, all of Springwater witnesses a heartwarming reunion that will change their lives forever.

Nice series but short

I enjoyed the series but the stories were much shorter than the customary Linda Karl Miller books.

Throughly fleshed out story!

It is nice to see a Christmas story have the same depth of plot and character as a longer, non themed book. This book has less descriptive, low occurrence (singular) sex scenes (so the old ladies won't complain too much or be offended.) The male lead has an interesting back story. The female lead is overly prim and proper. Still, the story unfolds nicely and is worth your time.

Heartwarming Western Christmas

Springwater Christmas has refreshing Western characters: a transplanted spinster who has given up on dreams of marriage and a weary Civil War vet who is finally ready to put his past behind him. Throw in a feisty orphan and a town full of colorful characters and it makes for the perfect Christmas story. The plot had good depth and the themes of post traumatic stress, secrets, loneliness, and family make this a rich and fulfilling book that ends up being fun and romantic.
