Last Christmas, I gave Liam Hargrove my heart…
Okay, maybe not my heart. But I was ready to give him something else—until he panicked and dropped me on my ass, bruising both my tailbone and my ego. Now I’d like to forget the whole mortifying mess ever happened.
This year, I’m moving on. I’ve traded my silly crush on my brother’s best friend for a dream come true: opening Blush & Binding, Cedar Hollow’s first romance-only bookstore. With a calendar full of holiday events, this Christmas is going to be my best one yet.
Until Liam shows up.
With my parents’ house overflowing and the local inn booked solid, my mom oh-so-generously offers up my guest room.
Now he’s in my space, helping with inventory, charming my customers just by existing, and reading my annotated romance novels like they’re a guidebook. He says he wants to make it up to me…starting by reenacting a few of my favorite scenes.
His gingerbread house building skills are impressive, so I just might let him.
But this time, I’m not falling so easily—or at least not without a fight.
TROPES:
💔 Brother’s best friend (aka the one who rejected her last Christmas)
🔁 Second chance romance
🏠 Roommates for the holidays
🔥 Spicy mirror scene
💋 Candy-stealing kiss
📚 He reads her annotated romance books…and acts them out
🛍️ She owns a romance-only bookstore
🏔️ Small town charm + holiday festivities for days
Booked for the Holidays is a ~54K word interconnected holiday novella (but can be read as a stand-alone) featuring brother's best friend, second chance, roommates for the holidays (forced proximity), and contains mature content meant for 18+ only.
