First Flurries

by Joanne DeMaio

First published 2018

Lindsey Haynes carries a snow globe her father gave her, inscribed with advice to shake it when unsure where to go and let her heart guide her. Acting on impulse, she follows this guidance to Addison, a picturesque New England town complete with a glowing town green, festive Main Street, and quiet lakeside cabins. Her peaceful arrival gets complicated when she meets Greg, a discouraged doctor who disrupts her plans like a shaken snow globe scatters its contents. The friendly locals begin interfering in subtle ways, creating unexpected encounters between Lindsey and Greg. As winter settles over Addison, both strangers discover that sometimes the best destinations are the ones you never planned to reach. Their growing connection proves that love and belonging can emerge from the most unplanned journeys.
