About this listen
When the man she secretly loves marries her best friend, the magic of Christmas seems to vanish along with Brandy’s last hope for love. Now, she’s spending her efforts trying to protect two young orphans, but as an unmarried woman, she won’t be allowed to give them the care she know she can. Worse, she has no idea that someone is after her, and both she and the children could be in danger.
But someone has also been watching Brandy closely, too afraid to tell her how he feels. She is his everything, and always has been. He’s determined to protect her at all costs—even that of his life.
Can Brandy rediscover the magic of Christmas and find true love while helping the orphans, or will she remain a schoolteacher for the rest of her life, destined never to have a family of her own?

Story
Lana Fleming’s sister has vanished from the set of TV’s hottest show, and no one seems to care. Desperate for answers, Lana sneaks in as an extra, only to get stranded with Griffin Hart, an A-list action star with a reputation for good abs and bad decisions. Though Griffin didn’t expect to be cast as a librarian’s sidekick in a real-life thriller, he’s weirdly into it—and into her. Even more unsettling—she sees right through his playboy persona. But their meet-cute soon turns deadly when they uncover a Hollywood scandal for the ages.

Not so much.

Liv’s happy with life in her thirties. She has two cats, one BFF, and no boyfriend, which is just how she likes it. Plus, she loves working at a not-for-profit software company where she can be her authentically autistic self. This is her happy ever after. But when her beloved firm merges with a repulsive rival, Liv finds herself competing with her sort-of-ex for the top job. Sure, Finn had been Liv’s best friend, with his nerdy good looks and their shared love of Tolkien, but there was that one night, their song, and … well, she doesn’t like to talk about it.
