The Christmas Market Crush

A Firefighter Calendar Romance

By: Molly Pine

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

She’s hiding behind her candles. He’s hiding behind a calendar. This Christmas, can they find the courage to be seen?

Melanie Bowman never wanted to run the family’s booth at the Evergreen Falls Christmas Market. Numbers and spreadsheets? Yes. Twelve-hour days filled with strangers? Absolutely not. But with her pregnant sister on bed rest, Melanie is stuck selling candles—and stuck next to the firefighters’ wildly popular calendar fundraiser. Including one firefighter in particular.

Luke Dutton—aka Mr. December—is the calendar’s reluctant star. Everyone sees the abs, the smolder, the candy cane photo shoot gone viral. But Luke longs for someone to look past the glossy image and notice the real man underneath.

When a gust of wind tangles Melanie and Luke in a banner-worthy disaster, sparks fly. Soon, Luke is helping Melanie draw customers while Melanie is helping Luke face more than just the crowds. Between nosy firefighters, a meddling elf, and a jealous ex in spandex, they’ll have to survive twelve days of chaos leading up to Christmas Eve.

As snow falls and lights twinkle, two unlikely hearts will discover whether the most imperfect person can the one who’s perfectly right.

Fans of small-town charm, slow-burn romance, and holiday happily-ever-afters will find their next favorite festive read here.
