They’ve been best friends for years. This Christmas, they’re looking for clues it’s time for more.
Emanuel
Christmas is supposed to be a magical time of year, but the restaurant I’ve worked in and loved is turning into a nightmare job, the rent is due, my mom’s flight from the Philippines isn’t going to pay for itself, and my grandfather still pretends I don’t exist. So I do what I always do when everything falls apart?
I walk to Common Grounds and find Chase. We’re both broke, we’re both a little lost, and neither of us has the faintest idea how to follow the clues that leads straight to our hearts. I shouldn’t want him, but a totally do.
Chase
Emanuel is my best friend and the one man I swore I’d never let myself fall for. Except now we’re partners in the town’s Christmas treasure hunt, competing with a ten-year-old (who is ruthless) through every shop in Glenside. Then a clue says we have to kiss, and I realize I’ve been lying to myself for a very long time.
One kiss. A joke. That was all it was supposed to be. Now I can’t stop thinking about it, or about him. And when we get caught somewhere we absolutely shouldn’t be, by the one person I least wanted to see, I’m not sure we can fake ‘just friends’ anymore.
Can two best friends in denial turn a partnership in a Christmas treasure hunt into the love of a lifetime?
Friends-to-lovers. Small-town holiday charm. A scavenger hunt, a found-family café crew, a grumpy grandfather, and a happily-ever-after with plenty of steam.Grab your copy today and find out where X marks the spot!
