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. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eEager 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. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eSharing 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. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAs the two navigate through various encounters, holiday festivities, and a snowstorm, will the magic of Christmas help them rediscover a long-awaited connection?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Charity Shane\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Black Odyssey Media\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/24\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 256\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.5lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.22h x 5.62w x 0.70d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781957950518\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCharity Shane \u003c\/b\u003eholds a bachelor's degree and a Juris Doctor degree.
