When a surprise call reunites Samantha and Ella Mitchell with their estranged mother, a tentative trip to the Scottish Highlands becomes the backdrop for a fragile family reckoning. Five years apart have left old wounds and unspoken regrets that surface as the women share a close, snowbound holiday together.

Gayle Mitchell, once at the top of her career, must choose between professional ambition and repairing the relationships she pushed away. A brush with mortality prompts honest conversations, awkward apologies and small acts of care that slowly open the door to forgiveness.

Set against wintry hills and a cozy cottage, this novel explores themes of reconciliation, the complexities of motherhood, and the strength found in sisterhood. Readers who enjoy character-driven holiday stories will appreciate the emotional warmth and quiet healing at the heart of the tale.
