Twelve horses. Twelve letters. Twelve days to decide what home is worth.
Six months after her mother's death, equine veterinarian Eve returns to Mistletoe Farm intending to settle the estate and leave. The farm is drowning in debt, its buildings are failing, and a developer's offer could free Eve and her brother from everything they owe. The offer expires on Christmas Eve.
Then Eve discovers twelve letters from her mother, one for each horse still living at the farm.
As snow closes in around Aldercombe, every letter reveals another life that cannot be reduced to an account-book entry. Finding safe futures for the horses also forces Eve to confront her brother's secrets, the hidden history of her family, and Noah, the man she left behind twelve years ago.
With Christmas approaching and the farm's future hanging in the balance, Eve must decide whether saving Mistletoe Farm means surrendering the life she built, or finally choosing the life she never allowed herself to want.
The Twelve Horses of Christmas is a warm, emotional Christmas novel about horses, grief, family secrets, second chances, and the quiet courage required to come home.
