When festive chaos meets quiet ambition, love just might light the way...Callie Bloom runs Wick & Wonder, Pinehill's coziest candle shop, where Christmas comes with glitter bombs, peppermint lattes, and one very mischievous puppy. She's all about comfort, chaos, and community-and this year, she's determined to win the town's Twelve Days of Christmas decorating contest, even if it means going a little overboard on tinsel.Sora Ishikawa was supposed to be on a break. Escaping the Tokyo tech world, he came to Pinehill for a quiet reset-not for a glitter cannon-wielding candle maker with a peppermint-scented plan and a knack for crawling under his skin.When a snowstorm strands Sora in Callie's shop, sparks fly-along with a lot of glitter, one rogue partridge, and more than a few accidental touches. What begins as festive rivalry turns into unexpected romance as twelve days of decorating turn into twelve days of falling hard.But when Christmas ends, will he stay?Or will she let him go?
