About this listen

A prominent romance author has a slump in her love life and book sales, but a chance encounter with a hot firefighter helps her reignite her muse in this swoony holiday romance, perfect for book romantics.

Saira Wright is a prominent Black romance author who has been signed to the most prestigious publisher of African American works, Brownstone Literature. Her career has been successful for the past five years. However, she’s in a slump, and so are her sales and reviews. The romance she has been known for seems to be zapped out of her stories … and her love life.

Eager to get Saira back on top of the charts, her publisher has given her an ultimatum—write a chart-topping holiday romance or be dropped from the publishing house. There’s only one problem: Saira strongly opposes penning holiday books. To her, they are cliché and off-brand, but with her career on the line, she’s forced to give it a shot. To capture the spirit of the holidays, she books a vacation in the most “Christmassy” town she can find.

Sharing the other side of her rented duplex is the owner, Dorian Black, a volunteer firefighter, and the town’s little league football coach. He’s also “Mr. December” in the firefighter’s annual fundraising calendar … and every woman’s dream. Years ago, Dorian was happily married to the love of his life until cancer took her away from him.

Still coping with the loss, a romantic relationship is the furthest thing from his mind.

However, when he encounters his new tenant for the holiday, sparks fly and a fire is ignited that not even he can extinguish.

As the two navigate through various encounters, holiday festivities, and a snowstorm, will the magic of Christmas help them rediscover a long-awaited connection?

Beautiful story

This was a very good story. She is a writer on a mission to find the Christmas spirit so she can write a holiday novel. He is a firefighter and her AirBnB host. Sparks fly the moment they met. He is also a widower and has been very cautious with his heart.
Even with the frequent use of the word "yoni", which I absolutely hate, I didn't DNF this book. I enjoyed it a lot. The story was super cute.

Very good

It was really adorable. Wasn’t a fan of the random yet deliberate insert of “damn” as an emphasizer. Otherwise…really enjoyed this story

This is one of my favorite Christmas themed books. It was the perfect Hallmark set up. There were a few things I wished the author addressed, but overall I enjoyed this novel from start to finish.

This was one of the best Christmas books I have read, and I am an avid Christmas book reader! This one touched me in a very special way personally, and based on the storyline, love, a nice amount of heat and spice, and just how refreshing it was to see main characters that were people of color. This was everything and I cannot wait to read more from this author!

I loved the story about his wife and how he came to terms with his grief. I love the way she chose herself and didn’t try to rush things with him.

It was a little different than a traditional Christmas book

I really appreciated the unique plot and setting. I loved the small town feel of the descriptions. The author really made the setting its on character, too, by creating a great bond to them per character. I like the pace and order of events.
