Between decorating, baking, and spreading holiday cheer wherever she goes, she's well on her way—if she can ignore the dark storm cloud living in the other half of her duplex.Nox wants nothing more than to survive the season in peace. He's avoided Christmas for years, and the last thing he needs is a relentlessly cheerful neighbor stringing lights, singing carols, and dragging holiday spirit onto his doorstep. Unfortunately, Aurora seems determined to make him participate whether he likes it or not.When the two find themselves competing in the town's annual bake-off, Aurora is convinced she can help Nox rediscover a little Christmas magic. Nox is equally convinced she's completely out of her mind.Between found family, magical mishaps, and one very determined witch, these opposites-attract neighbors might discover that the best holiday traditions are the ones you never saw coming.Follow Aurora and Nox's story, along with the quirky band of local misfits in this holiday novella set in the Deadlights Cove world. While each book follows a different couple, the Deadlights Cove series is best read in order beginning with book one, Smoke Show.
