Christmas by Lamplight: A Holiday Novelette

Carrie Watson isn’t looking for love—just a miracle. Her cozy Lamplight Books is the heart of Hollydale’s Main Street, but unless she can raise five thousand dollars by December 27, she’ll lose it to a corporate coffee chain. She’s poured everything into her dream and refuses to be rescued—by anyone.

Then a stranger catches her mid-fall—and the sound of his voice stops her cold. It’s that voice. The one that’s kept her company through long nights and heartbreak. Her rescuer is Tanner Blake, the famed audiobook narrator whose career just imploded in a Christmas scandal that cost the local children’s hospital its fundraiser. He’s hiding from the world. She’s fighting to save her own small corner of it.

When Carrie launches a holiday event to help the hospital and her shop, Tanner sees a chance to make things right—and maybe rediscover the man he was before fame and failure. As the town gathers beneath the glow of Lamplight Books, two guarded hearts discover that love has a way of leading you home.

A heartwarming small-town Christmas romance about redemption, courage, and the magic of finding home—perfect for fans of Debbie Macomber, Jenny Hale, and Susan Wiggs.
