Mistletoe & Horseshoes

the long version

Her five year prison sentence was reduced to two years for good behavior for the killing of her boss and sometimes lover, Rance Girard. Jolene King had set out to rebuild her life, if that was possible. Arriving in Trace Crossings during a blizzard, Jolene was just glad to have a place to hole up from the ferocious wind and snow ... even if it was a stable. Emmett Foster wasn't sure about his visitor ... but it was Christmas and he wasn't about to let human or beast die out in this weather if he could help it. Two lost souls seek to leave their past behind and find new beginnings ... after all miracles do happen during Christmas ... Don't they?
