If the Grandma Gang believes Cynthia Martin will participate in their matchmaking. .

. Why, they have another think coming!Cynthia Martin lost her husband of many years, and her two grown daughters are beginning their own lives.

She's trying to figure out who she is now—post-husband and post-kids. Somehow, she has to find the courage to live again (and maybe learn how to knit while she's at it).

However, every matchmaker in Yearly tries to set her up with some eligible bachelor, and Cynthia is at her wit's end. So, she inadvertently starts a rumor about her new neighbor Viktor Vody.

Viktor Vody has custody of his granddaughter, Anja, and he's recently inherited the Yearly, Texas home of a distant relative. Concerned about Anja's bullying at school, Viktor takes the inheritance as a divine sign it's time to make a change, so they move to Texas.

Viktor thought he'd accounted for everything a move might entail. Instead, he discovers he's smitten with Cynthia Martin.

. .

even if she was the one who started a salacious rumor linking their two names. A January Promise is a heartfelt romance, complete with a few tears, and a lot of heart in a small-town, love-after-loss romance.

Each book in The Yearly, Texas Romance Series is a standalone romance. They can be read in any order.
