After meeting how-to darling Miranda "Randi" Woodruff and posing as her husband Blake Hunziker, known as Blaze, as decided to return home. He left shortly after his brother's death and rather than looking back has traveled the globe.
Blaze's decision to help Randi has become something of a scandal in his hometown. Returning, though, is the only way he can think to find closure. Blaze's family runs the premier hotel in Whisper Shore, Michigan. After his brother's death Blaze is expected to take over his family business, but he's been running from the expectation.
The Hunziker family doesn't have much competition but a young lady living at the edge of town has inherited a struggling bed and breakfast. Autumn Kingsley is swamped by the major overhaul the family inn needs. She finally has an investor who will allow Autumn to leave town if she can get the repairs done in two weeks.
Blaze and Autumn must work together as Blaze tries to prove his responsibility by hosting and planning the local Christmas festival. Autumn uses her experience with the festival to help Blaze. He returns the favor with the newfound skills Randi Woodruff taught him -- even calling in a favor from Autumn's favorite television personality.
The Kingsleys and Hunzikers have rarely gotten along over the years. The more time they spend together the better Autumn and Blake bet along. When push comes to shove will the dream of travel pull Autumn from her hometown or will her newfound connection with the prodigal son make the small town her forever home?
Blaze rediscovers Blake and the expected cold shoulder is instead a warm welcome. He aims to prove himself to his family and town. Blake and Autumn manage to work together toward their separate goals and build something more than friendship. Readers who enjoyed Made to Last will enjoy this deeper look at Blake and his past as he puts the lessons learned from Randi into action.
