Christmas Eve at Friday Harbor / Lisa Kleypas / 211 pages / Winter Holiday Themed Book

"There are no rules for how to deal with the death of someone you loved.  You had to accept that the loss would always stay with you, like a reminder note pinned to your jacket."  Six year old Holly lost her mom in a car accident.  Her mom had left a note naming her Uncle Mark as her guardian.  Mark enlists his brother's help and suggests that they all live in the Victorian mansion Sam is renovating.  Holly has not spoken a word in the 6 months since her mom died...until...she meets Maggie in her toy store and is granted her Christmas wish.

"It was often in small moments that significant things were revealed."
