Christmas With Her Brother's Best Friend
(2024)(A book in the Escape to Haven County series)
A novel by Olivia Sinclair
This year, the best Christmas present comes with a badge...
Jillian
Running the cutest coffee shop in Nordquist keeps me busy, but I still notice how good my brother's best friend looks in uniform. Even if he is always being bossy in or out of it. I've had a crush on Cody forever, but he's always treated me like a kid sister who needs looking after.
Until the night he falls asleep in my cafe and everything changes. Now he's claiming he wants forever - and proving it with kisses in exchange for hanging Christmas lights. But can I trust the man who's hovered over me protectively for so long to finally be ready to see me as his partner?
Cody
First as her brother's friend and then as asheriff's deputy I've spent years watching over Jilly from a distance. But when I catch her eyeing my handcuffs with that spark of grown-up curiosity, all my careful control starts to slip. Now I'm done pretending I don't want her - and I'll do whatever it takes to keep her safe while making her mine. Even if that means losing my best friend in the process.
