Theo is warm and easygoing, drawing her in with his charm and generosity, while Wyatt is intense and serious, a brooding presence that both intrigues and intimidates her.

Amidst the charged emotions of new love, the city is gripped by fear as a serial killer lurks in the shadows, leaving her feeling watched and vulnerable.

Can she uncover the truth before it’s too late, or will the darkness consume her?

Charming Nicholas Saint

The headline screamed, “AMERICA’S SWEETHEART OR SECRET MUFFIN SMUGGLER?” All I wanted was a simple muffin, just one delectable treat. But now, due to a misunderstanding, I’m forced to spend the next week working on a Christmas tree farm in Aspen Hollow with Nicholas Saint, the owner’s son, and a total jerk.

On top of that, the media won’t leave me alone as they try to document every moment of this fiasco. My only goal is to keep my head down and do whatever my temporary boss says so I can get out of this town. It’s not easy, though, since he clearly doesn’t want me here, and I can’t seem to stop staring at his candy cane.

But I won’t let this situation get the best of me; I’m determined to make the most out of it. I’ll win over Nicholas Saint with my charm. But what will happen when he starts charming me right back?
