Margo of the Bells

Margo Dunway has wanderlust. It's like regular lust, but with travel thrown in. She's spent years locked in place, and is ready to set off on unfettered adventures as she figures out, well, the whole rest of her life.
Karl Moore isn't lonely. Not exactly. He has his golden retriever, and the choirs he directs, and his thousand dreams of settling down, securely anchored to the Gulf Coast town he's made home.
Goaded into joining an Advent handbell choir, Margo is shocked to run across Karl, a painful reminder of the church where her faith was shattered. He's as compelling as ever, but she resolves to resist his lures long enough to survive the Christmas season. Then she can sail away from all the temptations that would hold her back from finding her true passion.
Margo may be everything Karl ever dreamed of, but her dreams can't come true if she's constrained within the world he holds dear. He can't be her ballast, but can his heart afford for him to stand by and watch while she flies free?
