Rory Smith has been playing bass for Blinding Light since the beginning. Sure, he left a few times temporarily, but he’s always gone back to the only life he’s really known. It was all fun and games in his twenties, but lately he wonders if there’s something more out there besides traveling show to show.
Kai Marshall has always been a huge fan of Blinding Light, but the real reason he goes to every show he can sneak into is to get a glimpse of their hot bass player. Everyone else worshiped the lead singer Easy Rian. When they found out, he was out and proud, and in a relationship with the new guitar player, many hearts were broken. But not his. His heart only beats for Rory, the white-blonde haired rock god that he can’t get out of his head.
Rory’s played the rockstar game for many years. Not one time in all those years has he met anyone who made him feel the way the cute guy off to the side with the haunting blue eyes does. He’s always kept his heart on lockdown, but maybe it’s time for a jailbreak. His dreams have faded, but they’re not completely gone.

Isaac Grant has lived in Foggy Basin for all of his
twenty-three years. Everything was perfect until his
favorite friend with benefits, Jack, met the love of his
life. Sure, he was happy for Jack, but he missed him
and wanted someone of his own to keep him warm at
night, or to get into trouble with.
Tig Sawyer left Foggy Basin after only living there for a
little over a year. He graduated from high school and
moved onto an out-of-state college and, for the most
part, never looked back. But memories of that slower
pace always came back to him when he was neck deep
in work, and his personal life.
Isaac was never looking for a relationship and was
more than
happy to live his life loose and free, but since meeting
Tig, he wonders why he never wanted someone of his
own. He also questions why someone like Tig, who has
his life together and always seems happy as hell,
would want to take him on. But there’s something in the
way Tig looks at him that says he’s more than willing.

A night to remember, a confession, and a lifetime of love in this small town, friends to lovers Christmas romance.
Andrew Lawson’s life in Sacramento has turned from being everything he dreamed of growing up, to a lonely place where finding someone special to share his life with is impossible. When the first person he meets on returning home for Thanksgiving is his childhood friend Link, it’s a reminder of happier times when his whole future lay in front of him. Agreeing to a drink before heading to his parent’s place is a way to reconnect, and a great way to start the holiday.
Link Stanton never considered leaving the small farming town he grew up in, but he misses Andy more than he’ll ever admit. Secretly lusting after a friend is bad enough but being in love with him is so much worse. One drink with friends seems harmless enough, after all, catching up on old times can’t be a bad thing, until beers turn to shots, and Link reveals how he really feels.
Everything could change, and if Andrew doesn’t remember Link’s heartfelt confession, they could carry on as friends. But, if he does remember, this could be either the worst, or the best, Christmas of all.

Now a high school English teacher, Archie Star is spending his first winter break not behind the counter of the Blue Star Diner, but beside Brogan Finnegan—the man who turned a rented room into a refuge and a quiet friendship into something deeper. As snow blankets Foggy Basin, Archie wrestles with the unfamiliar comfort of belonging and the ache of old habits that whisper he doesn’t deserve it. But Brogan’s steady warmth, shared meals, and gentle invitations into his world begin to thaw more than just the cold. In this tender holiday interlude, Archie must decide whether he can truly stay—not just in Brogan’s home, but in the life they’re building together.
Then, on Christmas morning, beneath a tree glowing with soft lights and handmade ornaments, Brogan offers him something achingly simple: surprise present with a promise, and a question that asks Archie to stay—not for the holiday, but for good.
