When Marlie Grayson rented the upstairs of her Victorian home, she got way more than she bargained for!
Her new renter was not an older man with a teenage daughter as she'd been led to believe. The new Chief of police of the small Colorado town of Buckeye couldn't be over thirty. Plus, his five-year-old daughter brought back painful memories of a loss that Marlie still hadn't accepted.

They had to go!

The beautiful, green-eyed vixen with a baseball bat and a hatred of Christmas was a challenge Max Quenton hadn't seen coming. His new landlady stirred an interest he hadn't felt since the loss of his wife three years earlier. But since he wasn't what she expected either, she wants to evict him?

Not a chance!

Places to rent were as scarce as hen's teeth in the small town of Buckeye, and he'd finally found a decent place for him and Andi to live. He would not leave willingly!
