About this book

When a lucrative TV opportunity dangles the possibility of reuniting two estranged rock star moms for a Christmas Eve concert, Melody—a book-restoring introvert who's spent years avoiding the spotlight—finds herself teaming up with Beat, the charming son of the other band member and the one person she's been keeping her distance from since their electric teenage encounter. As they navigate the chaos of wrangling rock and roll divas, battling Santas, and a 24-hour film crew, the spark between them ignites into something undeniable, and Mel discovers that stepping out of her comfort zone feels less scary when Beat's got her back. But with a decades-old scandal lurking in the wings and Christmas Eve counting down, their budding romance—and everyone's dreams for this reunion—hang in the balance. It's the perfect blend of holiday heart, laugh-out-loud chaos, and that swoony slow-burn chemistry that'll make you root for them even as everything threatens to fall apart!

Electric tension wrapped in holiday warmth—indie rock and sultry R&B collide with Christmas nostalgia. Steamy chemistry meets twinkling lights. Think Clairo meets The Weeknd meets festive chaos. Flirty, magnetic, undeniably spicy.
