Escape to twinkle-lit Sugar Maple Falls, Pennsylvania, where two New York sisters trade the city rush for one unforgettable holiday.

When Cassie and Angie Hart make a last-minute getaway to recreate the Thanksgiving they loved as kids, they expect quiet streets and early bedtimes. Instead, they stumble into a postcard-perfect town with a pie-baking talent show, a spur-of-the-moment kitchen crisis, and many quirky, welcoming neighbors.

Then there’s Jackson, the soft-spoken woodworker who looks at Cassie like she’s a secret worth learning, and the Sugar Shack Café, where Angie rediscovers her spark (and her love of lattes).

Between a cheerful shopping expedition, the whirlwind of the Great Thanksgiving Pie Bake & Shake, and a community that rallies around in the midst of a flour shortage, the Hart sisters find themselves plating hope, stirring up a little trouble, and rediscovering what home tastes like.
