Wren Garcia has built her life on faith, loyalty, and forgiveness—at least in theory. As a veterinary technician at the Hutchinson Animal Clinic, she loves her work and her community in Standing Hope. But one thing she can’t bring herself to do is forgive Dr. Ian Blakely, the veterinarian who once tried to undermine everything her clinic stood for.
Ian regrets the choices he made during a desperate season of his life, when saving his father’s failing animal hospital meant crossing lines he never should have crossed. Now alone, overworked, and disillusioned, he’s barely holding the practice—and himself—together. Faith is the last thing on his mind.

When a Christmas pet adoption event throws Wren and Ian together, old wounds reopen—but so do unexpected possibilities. Wren begins to glimpse the man beneath Ian’s past mistakes: gentle with animals, compassionate with people, and quietly burdened by grief. Ian, in turn, finds himself drawn to a woman whose faith both unsettles and intrigues him.

As December deepens, their fragile friendship grows, complicated by Wren’s conviction that a shared faith matters—and Ian’s resistance to God after a lifetime of unanswered questions. When a chance encounter with a runaway teen leads them into a desperate search for two vulnerable sisters hiding on the streets, their hearts are tested in ways neither expected.

With a brutal winter storm closing in, time is running out. To save the girls—and perhaps each other—Wren and Ian must decide whether they’re willing to trust God’s purposes, even when the path forward is unclear.
