Aria Cole

When Poppy, a quirky data analyst with a passion for Christmas, books a holiday getaway to the secluded mountain town of Devil’s Peak, she expects a cozy cabin, festive cheer, and a little break from city life. What she doesn’t expect is Cade—a rugged, brooding craftsman who’s more comfortable with a hammer than holiday lights and has sworn off anything resembling a relationship after his heart was shattered long ago.
When a booking mix-up forces them to share the cabin, sparks fly and boundaries blur as Poppy’s relentless holiday spirit begins to thaw Cade’s icy exterior. With every holiday tradition she ropes him into—from mistletoe kisses to baking sessions laced with tension—Cade starts to wonder if letting Poppy in could be worth risking it all.
As Christmas Eve brings secrets to light and desires to a boiling point, Poppy and Cade must decide if their passion is just a holiday fling or the beginning of forever.
Can a mountain man who’s sworn off love find it in the last place he expects? And will Poppy’s leap of faith give her the greatest Christmas gift of all—a love that lasts?
Get ready for a sizzling, grumpy-sunshine, curvy heroine, forced proximity, opposites attract love story that proves sometimes, the best gifts aren’t found under the tree, but in the heart of the one who loves you.
