Rocky Road Dreams

Kyle's mom died when he was three - but he still remembers her. Plagued with questions about his childhood, Kyle Baxter takes a Christmastime hiatus from his law firm. As he uncovers secrets about his past, he's determined to learn more about his mother. During his hiatus he rents a beach house - right across the street from his childhood friend, Melanie. He's had a secret crush on Melanie Richards for years, but she was smitten with his identical twin brother, Keith. Recently sober, he's determined to show Melanie how much he's changed. Obese as a child, Melanie Richards is now slender and beautiful. She owns an herbal health food store. Having her own business comes with a high price. Her uncle agrees to finance her shop as long as she agrees to mentor Chloe, her drunken, wayward, 21-year-old cousin. Chloe's erratic behavior wreaks havoc in Melanie's life. Can a Christmas road trip help to solve Kyle's and Chloe's problems? Is Melanie attracted to Kyle because he resembles his twin, or does she love Kyle for himself?
