Her Grumpy Christmas Date

I didn't just smash ten thousand dollars of gear.

I crashed headfirst into a chiseled wall of brooding muscle.

I went flying into his rock-hard chest, and now the grumpy artist looks like he wants to devour me.

Noah is a massive recluse with a lethal glare and a secret he’ll kill to keep.

I’m the sunshine influencer who lives for the spotlight.

He’s the genius hiding in the shadows of this luxury lodge.

Our collision sent his equipment—and my heart—shattering to the floor.

Now I’m trapped in his space, working off my massive debt by his side.

He hates my camera, but his dark, possessive eyes track every curve of my body.

Every clash between us turns into a live wire of primal, thirsty heat.

I’m here to capture the perfect shot, but I’m falling for the man who refuses to be seen.

When the New Year’s countdown begins, will he step into the light for me, or let me go?

This is a spicy, high-heat grumpy/sunshine Christmas novella you can devour in under two hours—perfect for when you crave a physical meet-cute, forced proximity, and an artist who claims his woman.

No cheating or filler drama, just an obsessive “you’re mine” protector, a New Year’s gala, and a first time that turns a total disaster into forever.
