City-raised Kelsey Summerfield agrees to plan her grandfather’s Christmas wedding, eager to prove she can handle the celebration. The bride’s rancher grandson, Clay McKendry, is equally determined to stop Kelsey’s elaborate ideas from overwhelming the country event. A succession of mishaps forces the opposites to cooperate if their grandparents are going to reach the altar with the holiday intact. This Love Inspired romance combines a ranch setting, Christmas festivities, family matchmaking, and the familiar pleasure of two people discovering that constant disagreement can hide considerable attraction.
