Kiss Me Under the City Lights

Eloise Bennett has always believed there is nothing more magical than Christmas in New York City, the lights, the laughter, the first snowfall on city sidewalks. Between running her cozy SoHo coffee shop and caring for her dad, she doesn't have much time for herself. But when she's not serving peppermint mochas, she's cheering for her beloved Rangers, a tradition that started with her brother and her dad years ago. This Christmas, all Eloise wants is to give her family one perfect holiday together... and maybe, just maybe believe in something a little like fate.

Dean Callahan doesn't have time for fate. As a Brooklyn firefighter, his days are long, his nights unpredictable, and his heart safely guarded. Still, there's something about the holidays that softens even the toughest edges. When a chance encounter at a Rangers game leads to an unforgettable connection with the girl in the pink scarf, he tells himself it's nothing more than coincidence, until she turns up again, this time behind the counter of his favorite coffee shop.

As snow begins to fall and the season's spirit wraps around the city, Eloise and Dean find themselves drawn together again and again, through hockey games, twinkling lights, and quiet moments that feel like home. But with family heartaches and fears that love can't last, they'll have to decide if they're brave enough to believe in second chaces... and in each other.

Because in the city that never sleeps, sometimes Christmas gives you exactly what you didn't know you were wishing for.
