Publisher's summary
Annie Darling led a privileged life until her father passed, and in almost the same instance her virtue was stolen. Now sent to an unwelcoming Aunt, Annie is soon forced to make other arrangements and agrees to travel to Idaho before Christmas and wed Buck Jenkins, a rancher.
Buck Jenkins a solitary mountain man, sees in Annie a chance for love and family, but when she arrives it is soon apparent that his new wife has led a life of ease and is not cut out for the demands of mountain life. For one thing she is tired and weak, and she speaks of frivolities of decorations and Christmas festivities.
Desperate to win his affections before Buck discovers the truth, Annie works hard to make his life comfortable. And when Annie comes to the aid of an injured animal, in spite of himself, a genuine love begins to blossom. However when a mishap causes Annie an injury, the truth is out. Devastated, and resentful, Buck withdraws, and Annie fears her worst nightmare has come true.
As anger and silence pervade their home, Annie makes a dangerous decision and Buck is forced to make a choice. Either leave Annie to her fate, or find the strength to begin again.
Will Christmas bring love and joy to the mountains of Idaho this Christmas? Or have Annie and Buck lost the chance for the love that they crave? Find out in this wholesome Christmas romance from Faith Quinn.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 438
Romance can be a little complicated when you get sucked into a wormhole. Just ask high school English teacher June Flint. One little solar flare happens and suddenly you find yourself 85 years in the future. Eighty-five years from your dream job. Your ailing mother whose only companion in this world is you. Your favorite stuffed-crust pizza from DeLucia’s on Sunday nights. But when June’s cell phone inexplicably picks up a signal, she’s able to call back to the present—more specifically, four weeks before she accidentally time traveled.

Easy listening great book
Love the short stories, kept you interested, but then went onto a new book, making you wish the book would last longer and new books would come out with the same characters. Great reading enjoyed it very much.

Sweet story
Sweet story with a happy ending for all. Not to sure I like the narration, as some words were mispronounced but all in all, a good story.
