Release: February 18, 2025
Welcome to Sugarville Grove, where clean & wholesome small-town romance await you on every corner. Life is sweet in Sugarville Grove!

Becca can handle his rambunctious twins in the classroom. But teaching Zane to open his heart would take a Christmas miracle…
Zane Lawrence doesn’t need anything but the family dairy farm and his seven-year-old twin boys for his life to be complete. The single dad works hard all day and chases the boys around the farm all night. His life is a little chaotic – but there’s a delicate balance to it.
So when a pretty young teacher at the boys’ school tries to interfere with some big ideas about their education, Zane isn’t about to let her throw their world off-kilter. After all, she’s new to the school and Sugarville Grove. And it’s bad enough that she’s meddling in his business, but the fact that he’s desperately attracted to her makes him furious with himself.
New teacher Becca Hawthorne sees the Lawrence twins struggling despite their potential and reaches out to their dad right away, excited about her first opportunity to make a real difference. It’s crystal clear how much Zane Lawrence loves his boys, so Becca doesn’t expect him to be so offended at her attempts to help. Anyone can see that the man has deep wounds, but his reaction to her feels almost personal. She’s not about to let it stop her from fighting for his kids, though.
When he finally relents, Becca is sure that her dealings with the single dad are over. But for some reason, she suddenly finds herself bumping into Zane Lawrence at every turn. Whether it’s the store, the post office, or the flurry of holiday events in town, she can’t seem to stop seeing the handsome cowboy everywhere she goes.
Did Santa send these lonesome souls a pair of holiday matchmakers for Christmas? And how long can they keep denying what seems so obvious to everyone else before they finally surrender?

Sweet Surrender (A Small Town Christmas Romance): Sugarville Grove – Book 3 by Clara Pines
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Something about this book made me a crying mess. I can’t even begin to dissect what it was that hit me so much because it was a really sweet story about a young woman trying her best to help out two sweet boys and their dad to reach their full potential.
As written above, Becca was really sweet and such a sweetheart to all her students, especially to Nick and Cal. She took an instant liking to them and, of course, their dad as well. But she’s new to town and having her own class for the first time, she doesn’t want to rock the boat by adding romance to her life.
Zane is captivated by Becca as much as his sons are, but he’s been all alone since the day they were born and is afraid to take a chance on anything. But spending time with the sweet teacher will teach him that sometimes, all you have to do is be brave enough to try new things so that life can reward you with happiness.
