Christmas Eve at Friday

Christmas Eve at Friday Harbor by Lisa Kleypas

Oh, I loved this story, so full of joy and happiness. The descriptions of the areas in Friday Harbor are beyond belief, seem so real, I want to go there. A beautiful Christmas story. It's the first in a series, and if the others are like this one, I want to read it. Great read!
