But the magic of Christmas makes miracles happen, and Ivy just might find more than she ever thought possible: a welcoming town, a family reunited, a mystery solved, and a second chance at love.
Who wrote the note? Did the man ever come home? What mysteries did the Rose family hold? Ivy\'s quest brings her into the community, at a time when all she wanted to do was be left alone and nurse her wounds.
This discovery sets Ivy off on a mission.
In the pocket of a Suit she finds a note written in a childish hand: it\'s from a little girl who has one Christmas wish, and that is for her father to return home from the war.
At the top of a closet, Ivy finds an old Santa suit--beautifully made and decades old.
The previous family left so much furniture and so much junk, that it\'s a full-time job sorting through all of it.
The Four Roses, as the farmhouse is called, is a labor of love--but Ivy didn\'t bargain on just how much labor.
When newly-divorced Ivy Perkins buys an old farmhouse sight unseen, she is definitely looking for a change in her life.
