Dasher and her Christmas Miracle
(2026)(The second book in the Sleigh Belles series)
A novel by Serenity Woods
One Christmas fling. One unexpected pregnancy. And one very inconveniently irresistible man.
Emma Marley has sworn off men after a disastrous breakup. Between running her little café and keeping her busy life on track, she certainly doesn't have time for romance. Especially not with Ollie Ward, her gorgeous, charming, utterly irresistible friend who has always wanted more than friendship.
Ollie is only on Evermore Island temporarily. He's a free spirit who loves his work, his surfboard and the freedom to go wherever life takes him. A relationship—and children—are the last things he wants. After years of believing motherhood wasn't in her future, Emma has stopped dreaming about having a baby of her own. So when she finally gives in to the chemistry that's been simmering between them, they agree on the perfect solution: friends with benefits, no strings attached, no expectations.
Except the chemistry between them is hotter than either of them expected. And the more time they spend together, the harder it becomes to pretend their feelings aren't growing.
Then, on Christmas Eve, Emma discovers she's pregnant. A baby she never thought she'd have. A man who never wanted children. And a future neither of them planned for.
She knows Ollie has no plans to settle down. She knows he's planning to leave the island. And after watching her own father give up his dreams for his family, she refuses to be the reason Ollie sacrifices his future.
But Ollie has a choice to make.
Because maybe the greatest adventure of all isn't finding somewhere new to go...
Maybe it's finally finding somewhere—and someone—to stay.
Escape to Evermore Island for heartwarming small-town romances filled with Christmas magic, close-knit community, luxury, and happily-ever-afters.
