Stranded by a snowstorm. Forced to share a cottage. Sparks fly where old grudges burn. Claire Donovan has everything a city woman could want-except peace. When a blizzard traps her in her childhood village, the last thing she expects is to be snowed in with Ethan Hale, the boy who once made her life miserable. He's grumpy, stubborn, and entirely too handsome by firelight. What begins as barbed banter soon melts into something neither can deny. Candlelit nights, cozy Christmas traditions, and the magic of second chances stir feelings she swore she'd never revisit. But when the snow clears, will she return to the glittering city... or stay where her heart finally feels at home? Christmas by Candlelight is a feel good romance novel for anyone who believes the holidays are meant for healing, hope, and happily-ever-afters. If you love enemies into lovers tension, cozy romance books that warm you from the inside out, and romance Christmas stories that make you sigh with joy, this is your next favorite. Perfect for fans of Christmas romance books for adults, it's a heartfelt escape-one of those feel good reads for women you'll want to curl up with again and again.
