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

It's as if I've been given another chance to do the one thing that made my life worth living. After I left her house that night, I wasn't sure I'd ever get a shot like this again. I step back from her, getting out of my jacket and letting it drop to the ground where I stand. Once that's off, I reach down and around, grabbing Noelle by the cheeks of her ass, and lifting her up so that her legs can go around my waist. 


She makes a small noise of surprise but is right there with me as she loops her arms around my neck. Her lips open slightly—an invitation for me to take what I want. It's the kiss I’d hoped to take last time but didn't. We'd been so shocked at what was happening, I'm not sure we even realized how it was going to end when it started. 


Tilting my head to the side, I fuse our lips together, savoring the connection. I'm fully aware that just because this is happening again doesn't mean it'll continue to happen. I need to cherish these moments as I have them.
