Under the Tree (Tinsel Town #2)

She’s trying to finally grow up, not fall for the hot playboy Santa.

Joy Everly is ready to make a change. After a breakup causes her to rethink her entire life and career, she escapes to the only place that feels right for the season: Holly Hills Christmas Tree Farm.

It’ll be her last hurrah before she retires her photography business and settles down into a corporate job in the new year.

But when a burst pipe forces her to move into the cabin of Levi Holly—the town’s resident hot Santa—her plans for a relaxing escape are ruined.

Levi is the opposite of everything she’s working towards. He’s younger and flirty, while she’s trying to be more mature. He’s tied to a small town, while she’s heading back to the city. And worst of all, he’s completely off-limits.

So why is he so tempting?

As Joy gets wrapped up in working beside Levi—as well as living with him—she starts to see that there’s more beneath his Santa suit. Now, she’s rediscovering everything she loved about her art and falling even harder for the man who’s off limits.

But when old insecurities creep back in, will Joy go back to the life she thinks she should want, or will a little Christmas magic help her take a chance on the one she never saw coming?
