Twelve mdays. One stubborn little town. And maybe?just maybe?a second chance at love.

When big-city event planner Alexis Stapleton walked into the courthouse, divorce papers in hand, she expected a handshake, a nod, and a fast exit back to San Antonio. Carpenter cowboy, Brett Stapleton expected his freedom to come with sawdust on his jeans and a one-way ticket back to his quiet life in Whiskey, Texas. But the man who once officiated their vows ? Judge Henry pulled his gavel and growled, "Hold your horses. Not so fast." The papers won't get signed until they complete his "Twelve Deeds of Christmas for the town and yes, survive twelve days together.

Now Alexis and Brett are elbow-to-elbow in twelve days of yuletide chaos: untangling lights that look like tumbleweed, plating cookies and cocoa just because his smirk caught hers, sidestepping mistletoe ambushes (yes, the town's nosey twins, Hazel and Harriet are even available for comment.

She's stilettos and spreadsheets with a heart bolted shut. He's boots, wood-shavings, and hands that speak louder than words. Somewhere between falling snowflakes and sideways glances under string-lights, laughter sneaks back in and locked-up hearts creak open.

Sweet. Sassy. Cowboy gritty. Merry Christmas Whiskey delivers small-town charm, slow-burn second chances, boots-on-the-ground romance, and the kind of love worth dusting off your hat for.
