Glen Branson returns home for the holidays expecting little more than quiet snow, familiar traditions, and a well-earned break from the hectic pace of his life as a lawyer. What he doesn't expect is how quickly the rhythms of the town wrap around him again-the cozy mornings at Julie's bakery, the swirl of Christmas preparations, and the simple peace of walking streets he once knew by heart. With every snowfall, Glen is reminded that the true heart of the season isn't found in perfection, but in the people who make a place feel like home.

Amid glowing lanterns, snowy rooftops, and the gentle magic that only a small mountain town can offer, Glen meets Derek Winslow-a steady, kind local whose quiet warmth feels like it's been waiting for him all along. As festive moments and unexpected sparks draw them closer, Glen finds himself facing a choice far deeper than he ever anticipated: where he belongs, and who he wants by his side when Christmas morning comes.

Filled with tenderness, hope, and winter charm, this cozy holiday romance is a heartfelt novella perfect for curling up with on a snowy night.
