Returning home in time for her northern California town's annual Christmas pageant, Kate catches the spirit of the season and decides to open a bookstore in a charming but run-down historic mill. Decorated former U.S. Army Ranger Matt Granite, now a local contractor, doesn't mind working in the undeniably eerie house -- not if it means getting closer to Kate. There's something about the quiet, sensual woman that powerfully attracts him. When an earthquake cracks the mill's foundation and reveals a burial crypt, Kate senses that a centuries-old evil has been unleashed and that it's coming after her. Though Matt vows to guard her from dusk till dawn, Kate knows she will have to summon all of her and her sisters' powers to battle the darkness threatening to destroy both Christmas and the gift of soul-searing passion her hometown hero wants her to keep forever.... 2417251 book 1 11 2003 The Twilight Before Christmas (Drake Sisters, #2) total:848|5:361|4:247|3:202|2:30|1:8| 848 3467 1175 26 5 1 false false Mon Mar 30 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Mon Feb 23 15:16:25 -0800 2009 Mon Mar 30 17:55:51 -0700 2009 The Twilight Before Christmas - book 2 in her enchanting Drake Sisters series.
