The snow is falling, the twinkle lights are glowing, and love is in the air… even if it’s the last thing they wanted to find.
Welcome back to Hazelwood, where the holidays bring more than just festive cheer—they bring old flames, new hope, and the kind of magic that only a small town can create.

The Story
Coming home for Christmas was never part of Claire Monroe’s plan.
After ten years away, the last thing she wants is to face Hazelwood’s cozy streets—or the man she left behind. But when family obligations pull her back to town, she finds herself standing in the very café where she broke his heart… locking eyes with the one man she swore she’d never see again.
Logan Hart thought he’d made peace with the past. He’s Hazelwood’s steady, dependable sheriff, with a good life and no interest in reopening old wounds. But when Claire reappears just before the town’s annual Christmas Festival, all the feelings—and all the hurt—come rushing back.
Forced into each other’s paths while hanging Christmas lights, baking cookies for the town fair, and getting stranded together in a snowstorm, Claire and Logan are about to learn that holiday magic is a powerful thing.
But can the girl who left find her way back to the man who never stopped loving her? Or will history repeat itself once the snow melts?

A Sneak Peek
He studied her for a long moment, and she had the uncomfortable feeling that he could see straight through her carefully constructed walls to the mess underneath.
“I want to know what your plan is. How long you're staying. What you're hoping to accomplish here.”
“Why?”
“Because this is a small town, and your presence affects people. It affects the people who care about you, and the people who used to care about you, and the people who are trying to move on with their lives.”
The words hit like a physical blow. “I see. And which category do you fall into?”
