Synopsis (Goodreads):

Evie Crowe is starting over in a strange town with her newborn, and men are the furthest thing from her mind. If only the quiet, hulking farmer, Luke Ward, would stop coming into the thrift shop and piquing her reluctant interest. Evie wants to stay single all the way—she can’t trust anything more than friends-with-holiday-benefits. But Luke is in it for the long haul. He’s fixed on making this a Christmas Evie will remember forever. If she gives him a chance.

Thoughts on Merry Ever After: A new town, a new baby, a new job, and a handsome cowboy who keeps showing up at the thrift shop looking for jeans. Seeing as how Luke is practically a giant (I might be exaggerating a little), none of the jeans he tries on fit. Fortunately for him, Evie has a knack for repurposing old clothes.

Also fortunately for him, Evie has a bit of a temper and when she misconstrues one of his actions, she gets it in her head that she's going to show him that she has talent even though she's a single mom. So she makes him some jeans and sets out to give them to him. Then she finds out that what she thought wasn't exactly right and soon these two are making eyes at one another.

A little gift giving, some steamy kisses, a little loneliness, a man who is good with kids and animals and is convinced he needs to move slowly so he doesn't scare his special someone off, and a lady who definitely knows a good guy when she meets him. *thumbs up*
