One small-town Christmas, One outrageous marriage pact, and One very inconvenient spark.Gabby Fiore has one Christmas wish: a quiet, perfectly predictable holiday. Nowhere in those plans does she mistake a suspicious stranger for a threat to one of her students—and she absolutely does not intend to body-check a famous movie star. But in the course of one afternoon, her hopes for a calm December go up in festive smoke.
Kale Ward came to Bearwood for one reason: to lie low while reconnecting with his estranged family. The last thing the action hero needs is attention, especially from his cousin’s best friend—the fierce, beautiful teacher who accused him of being a kidnapper. But when a stalker starts sending Gabby unsettling gifts, his ex-military instincts kick in. A simple offer to play bodyguard quickly turns into a full-blown holiday pact: pose as her devoted husband until the threat disappears.
Between festive family gatherings, small-town Christmas magic, and one far-too-convincing kiss, playing pretend starts to feel very real. And the closer Gabby and Kale get, the harder it becomes to guard their hearts from the one thing they never planned for: falling for each other.
A Merry Little Christmas Pact is a closed-door holiday romcom with witty banter, slow-burn tension, and all the swoon without the spice.
Genre: Romance
