Cormac "Mac" McCabe made history as Major League Baseball's first openly gay MVP. Now he just wants a quiet Thanksgiving with his cousins in Seattle—a chance to escape the spotlight and heal from a bruising breakup.

But when a stalker's obsession disrupts the family’s Thanksgiving dinner, Mac's cousin, Michael, hires Eamon Price, a bodyguard haunted by a past failure that cost a client her life.

Eamon's job is simple: keep Mac safe. What he doesn't expect is Seattle's Christmas magic—or Mac himself. Between holiday lights, family dinners, and stolen moments on a Christmas ship cruise, professional lines blur into something neither man planned for.

When the stalker strikes a week before Christmas, Eamon must face his demons and Mac must fight for the man who's been protecting him all along.

Swoony Christmas romantic suspense where danger meets magic, and love means learning to be brave together.
