Years of guarding my heart hasn’t stopped Georgie Bookman from slowly stealing pieces of it every day. She’s everything I’m not, and the thought of dulling her shine with my gloom has kept me away. But my restraint weakens with each smile and when the last tethers of my control snap, I’m helpless to stop myself from taking what I know is meant to be mine.

Bringing joy to other people is my ultimate love language. During the year I get to do it by finding the perfect book for each of the library’s patrons. Each holiday season is when I’m able to bring a different kind of joy to the people of Evergreen Lake through my secret side project. But this year is different. My secret project is in the crosshairs of Deputy Grumpy—aka Deputy Westwood. And that’s not the only thing he’s suddenly focused on. Being the subject of his undivided attention is like nothing I’ve ever experienced.

Will the bubbly librarian be able to pierce the dark veil shielding the deputy’s heart or will his past heartbreak close him off from love forever?
