This holiday, sparks fly in the most unexpected way. A grumpy forensics professor meets his match in a bubbly, brilliant anthropologist, and their chemistry might just be sprinkled with a little Christmas magic.
For Dr. Chris Carter, traipsing through snowy woods in search of a century-old skull is just another day on the job. He’s recently heartbroken, it’s freezing, and the holidays promise nothing but solitude and caffeine. That is, until Daphne McKinnon, his colleague’s bright-eyed new assistant, bounces onto the crime scene.
With her keen mind, radiant smile, and an uncanny knack for making even dirt-covered orbital bones seem exciting, Daphne sparks something in the uptight professor. When their hands brush over the remains, it’s more than flirtation—it’s magic.
As they transport the skull across the state, their connection deepens. Chris finds himself surprisingly protective, wildly impulsive, and… utterly captivated. Together, they navigate childhood wounds, create their own holiday traditions, and uncover a romance that’s as warm and messy as a peppermint hot cocoa bomb.
But their cozy Christmas adventure is far from smooth. One disaster after another threatens to derail their budding relationship, and by the time the final chaos hits, Chris and Daphne must decide if their love can survive the remains of Christmas.
A grumpy professor, a spirited anthropologist, and a disembodied skull—what could possibly go wrong this holiday season? Everything.
