From the author of Spellbound Scones and Sky of Thorns comes a spicy, forced proximity, lumberjack polar bear shifter romance. When witch Hazel Tolbert moves to a snow-dusted mountain town the week before Christmas, all she wants is a cozy holiday season filled with lights, cocoa, and most importantly; the perfect Christmas tree. Too bad the whole town is sold out. Miles away, Benjamin Oakwood is ready to hang up his work gloves for the season. His family’s tree farm has been picked clean, and all he wants is some quiet mountain life and a break from the chaos of his boisterous polar bear shifter clan. But when a determined newcomer shows up at his land insisting on an oversized tree, he finds himself roped into helping her in more ways than he expected. Hazel is stubborn, independent, and absolutely not looking for a grumpy lumberjack to interfere with her holiday plans. Benjamin is practical, brooding, and definitely not looking for a witch who makes his bear stir in ways it shouldn’t. But fate—and a snowstorm—has other plans. As Christmas Eve approaches and secrets come to light, including Benjamin’s true nature. Hazel has to decide whether to guard her heart or risk everything for a love as wild and enduring as winter itself. Snowstorms. Found family. Banter. Fated mates. A little holiday spice. This is one Christmas neither of them will forget. Grumpy x SunshineSmall townMeet cuteAge gapPolar Bear x WitchFated matesSpicy 🌶🌶 (18+)‘Best.Slow.Burn.Ever.
