Publisher's summary

Linda Maxim is a woman who learned early on how to work hard and succeed. Her only regret is that the man she loved disappeared just days after she got pregnant at the tender age of 16.

Fourteen years later, Ian Dugan needs a break from life and ends up crashing his vehicle and waking up in the hospital to find Linda watching over him.

Can Linda forgive Ian for leaving her alone as a pregnant teen? Will Ian be able to forgive Linda and himself when he learns of the daughter he never knew about? Find out on New Year's Eve if Ian can erase the tears and find something to cheer about.

A good addition to the series

This second audiobook in the Celebration Township series gives the starring role to Linda Maxim, a character we met in the previous story.
Linda is a single mom working in the hospital as an ER nurse. Her life will be turned upside down when a man from a car accident on his way to Celebration is brought into the emergency room . This man on the gurney is a blast from the past.
Ian Dugan was Linda’s HS sweetheart. The boy she gave her heart and virginity to, whose child she had and the same one that disappeared fourteen years ago to never return.
While Linda still carries the hurt and feelings of betrayal, other feelings are still alive between the two them. Their very mature daughter Megan is thrilled to finally meet her dad and hopes she can finally have a real family.
As he recovers and things seem to be going well for the them to have a future, someone from Ian’s past shows up . Will that person destroy their future or will they finally get their HEA?
I am looking forward to more entertaining ad engaging stories in this series.

Fabulous Story & Listen 🎧 Captivating & Heartfelt!

Stacy Eaton does it again, she pens delivers another fabulous book in her “Celebration” series. Each book is set in Celebration Township, PA and features a different couple and Holiday. All the books in this series can be enjoyed year round and on their own though I do I recommend starting with the the first book, “Tangle in Tinsel” Thad and Casey’s story, not only is it awesome but it gives you more insight about Celebration and some of the characters who reappear in future books. I am loving the small town charm that continues in each book as well as the awesome characters. The timeline for this book starts about a day or so after the first book, Linda Maxim is a nurse in the same hospital where Casey works. She is a long time resident and a single mom of a teenage daughter, Megan. Ian Dugan is heading back to Celebration, he needs to take care of things in the home his father left him, plus he needed a break from his life in Philadelphia. Unfortunately he crashes his vehicle before making it there, landing him in the emergency room. When Linda realizes who he is she faints, he is a long lost love, the only man she ever loved, the one who got her pregnant and then disappeared without a trace. While he never knew of her pregnancy he owed her an explanation and when he sees Megan he knows exactly who she is, she also knows who he is. I loved how everything plays out in this book, it is wonderfully plotted with plenty of drama, a touch of angst, some heartfelt moments and a great second chance romance. Stacy Eaton, thank you for another fabulous story, I am looking forward to see what comes next for these amazing characters in your Celebration series, it is interesting to see what they do for each holiday.

Yvonne Cude continues to bring the characters of Celebration to life. She is a talented narrator and voice artist and has been doing an awesome job portraying each character, giving them their voices and personality. You could hear how much heart she puts into her work as she captures the characters emotions and projects them into her performance. She is an entertaining storyteller and a pleasure to listen to. Thank you for another fabulous listen🎧

A second chance in Celebration

Linda pulled herself together and moved on after her high school sweetheart up and disappeared. Now 14 years later he shows up again. Can they get their second chance at love, or are the secrets they both have too big to move beyond?

A fantastic second story in The Celebration series. Stacy Eaton writes realistic stories that will pull you right in. I’ll be jumping right in to the next one!

Yvonne Cude has done a fine job with the narration. She captured my attention and entertained throughout.

Love this series...just not the narration

I’m surprised to say I liked this book better than the first in the series! I usually don’t like the subsequent books in a series when they aren’t about the original couple but that’s not the case here. I’ve already downloaded the next one! However, I’m so NOT a fan of the narration. It was just okay in the first book but this one I cringed every time the female MC chapters came up...shrill and cringe worthy to my ears and male voices weren’t much better. The kid’s voice was good, though, and a lot of narrators can’t pull off a kid voice! Im off to listen to the next one and I hope the narration goes back to being just okay. 🤗

Second chances

If you were given the a second chance to be with the one you love, would you take it? Linda is an ER nurse, who at the age of 16 found herself pregnant and alone. Her boyfriend, Ian, took off without a word and left Linda to make some life changing decisions. Now 14 years later, Ian is in the emergency room where Linda works. Should she tell him about their daughter? Do they still have feelings for each other? Will Ian survive? This is a sweet, second chance at love with that one special person. Stacy Eaton's 2nd book in her Celebration series is just the kind of feel good romance I enjoy. Linda is a strong, capable woman, but the arrival of her old beau has definitely thrown her. Ian is just as shocked to see her in the hospital, but is even more surprised at the circumstances. It's fast moving, but has all the feels, all the surprises and the standout character of their daughter whom I found delightful. Narrated by Yvonne Cude, the story flows with wonderfully warm voices, easy transitions and a beautiful performance.

Linda & Ian

A second chance romance for these former high school sweethearts. Ian does not know he had a daughter after he left town suddenly 14 years ago. Linda was very hard on Ian for circumstances out of his control.
