Merry, bright, and ready to go all night...

Merry Lights

With a name like mine everyone assumes Christmas is my favorite time of year. 

Truth is, being the owner of Blizzard Bluff's most popular bakery, this is my busy season and if it doesn't go well, I won't have anything to live off of for the remaining eleven months of the year. I'm closest to my coworkers, since I spend the most time with them. 

But there's one I can't get out of my head; Beckett. A construction worker by trade, he's using his winter break to save money for a new home. 

When a blizzard surprises the town, and I'm stuck at the shop with the hottest baker I've ever worked with. Over the course of twenty-four hours, he teaches me things about my body I never knew. As the plows go through to clear the streets, I hope it doesn't end.

The Blizzard Bluff Series

This shower is amazing. I don't think one has ever been more needed as this one is. I can't believe I've worked here as long as I have without knowing there's essentially an apartment off the side of the bakery. Although I understand why she kept it to herself. I would too, if I were a woman who spent a lot of time here by myself. 


I want to be nosey and get into her space, but I realize that's not why she's invited me here. She needed my help and I offered, not because of what she can do for me, but what I can do for her.


"Your turn," I walk out wearing a pair of sweatpants and shirt I keep in my truck just in case I'm somewhere I need to change clothes.


"Be back in a few," she leaves behind a trail of her strawberry-scent as she heads toward the shower I just vacated.
