Tic-Tac-Mistletoe (Hartbridge Christmas, #1)

by N.R. Walker

“But you didn’t just choose Hartbridge,” Hamish said quietly. “You chose your dad, your family business, your friends. People who know your name, who ask how your day is and actually care to hear your reply. Finding a place not to call home, but a place that actually feels like home is a privilege.”

“Hamish, just go with it. If it lasts a week or a year or if it’s forever, don’t waste happiness. Life’s too fucking short.”
