Under the Mistletoe: Steamy Contemporary Christmas Romance

Under the Mistletoe is a sizzling, festive tale of unexpected love, perfect for readers looking for romance with a steamy edge to warm their winter nights.

A high-powered executive and a rugged small-town handyman find themselves snowed in together over Christmas, where holiday sparks turn into a fiery connection that neither of them saw coming.

Summary:

Vanessa Chase is a successful, no-nonsense advertising executive with a glittering career in Manhattan but little time for love-or Christmas. When her overbearing boss insists she take a break to recharge her creative spark, Vanessa reluctantly agrees to spend the holidays in a remote mountain cabin. Her plan? A quiet week alone with work files, wine, and a blazing fire.

Enter Will Carter, the ruggedly handsome and infuriatingly charming local handyman, who's tasked with fixing the cabin's heating system after a sudden blizzard knocks it out. Vanessa's first impression of Will is anything but warm-he's too casual, too smug, and too stubborn for her taste. But as the storm intensifies and leaves them stranded together, the cabin's chill isn't the only thing heating up.

Forced into close quarters, Vanessa begins to see past Will's rough edges to the kind-hearted man beneath. He's nothing like the buttoned-up men she's used to-Will is earthy, playful, and lives life on his own terms. Meanwhile, Will can't help but be drawn to Vanessa's sharp wit and unexpected vulnerability, even as she tries to keep him at arm's length.

Snowball fights turn into accidental touches, cozy fireside chats into smoldering glances, and a shared glass of mulled wine leads to a kiss under the mistletoe that neither of them can resist. As the days pass, Vanessa and Will give in to their undeniable chemistry, but their whirlwind connection comes with complications.

With Christmas morning approaching, Vanessa must decide whether to return to her high-powered city life or take a chance on the rugged handyman who's stolen her heart. And Will must confront his own fears about love and whether he can offer Vanessa a life she'll be happy with.
