Holiday Sparks: A Cedar Falls Holiday Romance - Paperback

Cedar Falls treats Valentine's Day like a sacred tradition, but I treat it like a logistical operation. As the town's event planner, I don't have the luxury of believing in romance or grand gestures, only in the reality of schedules, budgets, and making sure nothing falls apart under my watch. Thus, I'm determined to make the Valentine's Day fundraiser flawless-because flawless means safe and controlled.

...Until Elias Cross arrives-the local chocolatier, and professional believer in magic. Elias doesn't do controlled. He does spectacle. He wants a chocolate fountain, a confession station, and the kind of stall that makes people believe in love again-never mind the clear exits or a balanced ledger.

Our disagreements lead to the town council forcing us to co-plan the gala. Working together was never part of the plan, but neither was the way he notices when I skip meals or how he reads the cracks in my composure. The more we work together, the more I begin to see the man beneath the charm-and the harder it becomes to hide behind my clipboard.

Soon, it becomes impossible to ignore the growing spark between us-which is exactly what I've been trying to avoid. Because for the first time in years, I'm not sure I can control what happens next. In a town built on tradition, I'm about to find out whether love is just another performance, or something you choose, even when the event ends and the lights fade.

Holiday Sparks is a steamy, slow-burn Valentine's romance set in the charming town of Cedar Falls, featuring forced proximity, grumpy-sunshine dynamics, found family vibes, emotional depth, and a hero who believes love is worth showing up for. It's one of five standalone books in the Cedar Falls series, each offering a guaranteed happily-ever-after with no cliffhanger-perfect for fans of cosy small-town charm, emotional vulnerability, and love stories about choosing each other when it matters most.
