All I Want for Christmas by Callie Woods

Juliette Ramon is a master at hiding. She fled her small mountain town as a teenager and never looked back.
Max Nichols was destined for greatness and even had a college football scholarship, but he gave up his dreams to raise the infant that Juliette left behind. She had never even told him that she was pregnant or that she was planning to let strangers adopt their child, and he spent the past six years searching for her so he could demand answers.
When Juliette comes back into town for the holidays, Max thinks he’s ready to confront her. But Juliette isn’t the same young woman who left their High Sierra Mountain town six years ago.
Max isn’t sure what to do with the woman who broke his heart all those years ago, and he wants to protect his daughter from feeling the same pain. But Juliette says she isn’t leaving this time.
High Sierra Mountains… a place where community means everything, and it’s never too late for a second chance.
