At the urging of four women at the assisted-living community where she serves as health director, Noelle decides to rent Seashell Cottage on the Gulf Coast of Florida for the holidays. She meets Silas Bellingham, the cutest seven-year-old boy she's ever seen, and his great-grandmother, Althea. Noelle discovers Althea's caretaker has been abusing her and goes into action, ending up with the temporary care of both Althea and Silas. Becoming part of the Bellingham household has an entirely different series of challenges when it comes to Althea's grandsons, Jake and Brett, who are having problems of their own with hotels to run and their parents missing in a plane crash. But after sparring with her, Silas' father, Jake, realizes Noelle might be just what he and his family need, and when she finds the perfect Christmas star for Silas, the Christmas becomes the one they've all wanted.This book is a standalone novel that is one of others based at the Seashell Cottage on the Gulf Coast of Florida.
