Winter Wishes: Main Street Minden | Tara Grace Ericson
Todd Flynn has always been the lovable jock, known for being a simple yet reliable carpenter and handyman in the small town of Minden. Nearly a high school dropout and actively discouraged from pursing academic pursuits by his abusive father, Todd has been keeping a huge secret from everyone in town, including his good friend Chrissy. Will letting everyone see his true self threaten the friendships he has had for so long? Christine Mathes has worked at her parents cafe ever since returning home after only a year in college. When her parents retire and leave the cafe entirely in her hands, she quickly becomes overwhelmed with the new responsibility and turns to Todd for help. A dark secret of her own threatens to derail her plans for the cafe when she is forced to return to the city for the first time since college in order to save her business dreams. Despite their long friendship and the romantic tensions that seem to rise when they are alone together, will Chrissy and Todd let their secrets and their insecurities hold them back from happiness? Can they discover that being fully known is the key to community, faith, and true love?
