From a New York Times–bestselling author, a holiday novella about a woman who learns the secret of holiday joy while snowbound in a department store.
Noelle is not a fan of the holidays and to make matters worse, she is at a crossroads in her life when it seems that love and adventure are no longer possible. When she stays late at her job in a department store on a snowy Christmas Eve she accidentally gets locked in after closing. She isn’t too concerned about the prospect of spending the night in the store . . . until a woman appears out of nowhere and tells Noelle that she’s her guardian angel.
Soon Noelle finds herself camped out in the shoe department facing several “ghosts” of Christmases past, present, and future . . . all while surrounded by Manolo Blahniks, Jimmy Choos, Chanel slippers, and Prada riding boots. Will visiting the holidays of yesterday and tomorrow help Noelle see the true spirit of Christmas? And will the love she has longed for all her life be the best surprise gift of all?
