Abbie’s Christmas wish draws three men to her mother. One of them is a monster.
After too many horrifying experiences, Claudia Westerson has given up on men. She’s done everything possible to exorcise the men in her life, short of changing her name and appearance. They’re unpredictable, controlling and, worst of all, dangerous. Besides, all her energies are devoted to therapy for her daughter, Abbie, who is recovering from a brain injury.
But after Abbie is photographed making a wish for Christmas, Claudia begins receiving anonymous threats, proving her quiet refuge is not nearly hidden enough.
Who can she trust?

Who can she trust? Three men hope to make her theirs:

- Ethan, her daughter’s biological father
- Rhys, a local school teacher and widower.
They all sound sincere, but which one isn’t?
