I never expected Santa to look like him.

When I take my five-year-old son to the town’s Christmas fair, I’m prepared for cookies, music, and maybe a little holiday magic… not a grumpy, quiet mechanic in a red suit.

James Hart is the last man I’d ever picture as Santa Claus. He hates Christmas, barely smiles, and seems allergic to small talk. He’s twice my age, rough around the edges, and completely wrong for me, but there’s something about the way he makes me feel safe that I can’t ignore.

When a snowstorm traps us together, I start to see the man behind the gruff exterior... the one who makes my pulse race faster than it should.

I tell myself it’s just the season, just a spark of holiday warmth…. but what if this Christmas miracle is real?

A Christmas with The Grumpy Santa is a short, sweet, and steamy small-town instalove romance with a happy-ever-after. It can be read as a standalone or together with the rest of the books in the Christmas in Maple Falls.
