From the author of heartwarming small-town romances comes a Valentine's story about second chances and unexpected love.

Grace never thought she’d spend Valentine’s Day hosting an Anti-Valentine’s Day Experience, but after her new relationship falls apart, she’s determined to make the best of a bad situation. Turning her inn into a haven for those who’d rather skip the chocolates and roses, she’s ready to face the holiday on her terms.

Her plan? Offer a one-of-a-kind event for guests who’d rather celebrate freedom than romance. The only challenge? Keeping her composure when her ex-boyfriend shows up—followed by his new girlfriend.

As the event unfolds, Grace finds herself surrounded by an eclectic mix of guests, each with their own story. With every shared laugh and surprising connection, she begins to see the beauty in letting go—and the possibility of starting over.

Will she find the strength to embrace love once more? Or will this Anti-Valentine’s Day be her undoing?

Countdown to Valentine’s Day is an uplifting small-town romance brimming with humor, second chances, and the promise that love can bloom even when you least expect it.

Curl up with this cozy tale today and rediscover the magic of love in all its messy glory!

From the Desk of Dianna Houx, Author, The Holiday Countdown Series

Dear Reader,

We've all seen the Hallmark Christmas movies. Someone from the 'Big City' visits a small town, falls in love with a local, and then the movie ends with them living happily ever after.

But what happens after the holiday ends and the couple emerges from their eggnog-fueled stupor? Do they really get their happily ever after, or does the visitor return to the city and the life they left there?

These are the questions that go through my head each time the credits roll, and I found myself answering them in this book in a way that surprised even me! So if you'd like to see my take on what happens once the magic of Christmas wears off, join me in Countdown to Valentine's Day. Same beloved characters, with a bit of a twist!

Happy Reading!
Dianna Houx
