She writes epic love stories. She just never meant to star in one.

Meri Bennet is the sensible middle daughter. The one holding the Snowdrop Inn together with sarcasm, caffeine, and a steady stream of eye rolls. She prefers fantasy novels, oversized sweaters, and the quiet satisfaction of being overlooked.

What no one in Maple Ridge knows is that Meri is also the wildly successful, very anonymous author of a bestselling romantasy series that has readers begging for dragons, sword fights, and brooding heroes with brains, not biceps.

So when her publisher starts pushing for film rights and sends a famous actor to the Snowdrop Inn to ‘help the negotiations’, Meri is not impressed.

Aryn Levich is everything she despises. A muscled bad-boy movie star who clearly spends more time in the gym than the library. He is absolutely wrong for her book’s clever, nerdy, resourceful hero… and she tells him so.

Frequently.

What Meri does not know is that Aryn is a secret superfan. He read her books. All of them. Twice. He wears glasses at home, quotes her characters under his breath, and wants the role because the story actually matters to him. And Meri? She is nothing like the fame-chasing admirers he usually meets. She is sharp, unimpressed, and entirely uninterested in him which only makes Aryn more determined to win her over.

Snow falls. Tempers spark. Lines blur between fiction and reality.

Because sometimes the greatest love story is the one neither of you planned to write.

Firelight & Forever is a cozy, enemies-to-lovers holiday romance filled with secret identities, bookish banter, a muscled nerd in disguise, and the magic of falling for someone who sees the real you—glasses, sarcasm, and all.
