Christmas With The Bad Boy
(2025)(A book in the Stuck For the Holidays series)
A novel by Blakely Stone
Living in a year-round Christmas town comes with a lot of jingles and not enough patience. I escaped the minute I graduated—new city, new job, new life far away from small-town drama and the boy who shattered me.
When my grandmother passed away, she left me the one thing I can’t ignore: her spot as chair of the annual Sled Parade. Fifty years of tradition, and it’s on me to keep it alive.
What I didn’t know when I agreed to come back is that I’d be co-chairing with my ex.
Butch Harten.
The hotheaded bad boy who missed my going-away party because he spent the night in jail after yet another fight.
The guy who swore he’d follow me out of this town… then didn’t.
Now he’s a firefighter. A hometown hero. Broader, quieter, annoyingly good at his job—and still capable of flipping my entire emotional world upside down.
We’re supposed to smile, plan the parade, and act like two adults who aren’t drowning in five years of unfinished business.
Then the blizzard hits.
The roads close.
And I get snowed in with the man who broke my heart.
We bicker. We slip. We spark.
And one mistletoe moment turns into a kiss that makes every buried feeling roar back to life.
I came home to honor my grandmother.
I didn’t plan on getting a second chance with the one person I swore I’d never forgive.
Genre: Romance
