Madeline Drake is on the verge of stardom when an accident on a snowy Wyoming road dumps her a century into the past.

Welcome to Bethlehem, Wyoming. Home of the oddest collection of lost souls ever assembled. This quirky, small town, with its currency of wishes and second chances, has only one rule—once you arrive, you have thirty days to prove your worth before you can leave.

Having never been much for rules, Madeline begins an out-of-control campaign to get home immediately and regain her modern life. But to her dismay—and then utter amazement—her life becomes entwined with that of the town’s proper postmistress, Ninny Minch, and the more scalding, Savannah Clarke, a widow hiding behind a wall of guilt and grief.

Now Madeline has until Christmas Eve to assist these two in unravelling the lies that have left them in knots for decades. Helping anyone other than herself doesn’t come easily to Madeline, but as these fragile new bonds of friendship grow, she finds the trust and acceptance that may well be strong enough to unpack even the most closely guarded secrets.

Even a few of her own.
