About this listen

Snowfall, silence, and a marriage on pause—some hearts only need a little holiday light to shine again.

Beth Brockington thought she had everything figured out—until her marriage fell apart just before the holidays. Now she’s struggling twin five-year-olds, a bustling family store, and trying not to think about the empty space where her husband used to be. The last thing she expects is to feel her heart skip when Brett shows up looking like the man she fell in love with instead of the stranger they’d both become.

Brett knows they lost their way somewhere between building a life and living it. When he sees Beth across the Town Square laughing with Callie, like she used to laugh with him, he realizes what they had is worth fighting for; but some bridges take more than good intentions to rebuild.

With nosy neighbors, well-meaning matchmakers, and a town that practically runs on Christmas magic, Beth and Brett must decide if their love can be rekindled—or if some hearts stay closed for good.

Midnight Kiss Countdown is Book 2 in The Holiday Matchmaker Short Romance Series—an interconnected/standalone short romance perfect for listeners who believe in:

  • Second chances
  • Separated couples reconnecting
  • Christmas reconciliation
  • Small-town matchmaking schemes
  • Family-centered holiday magic

Spice Level: 2–3
Sweet heat. Real emotion. Swoon-worthy redemption.

The perfect short holiday listen for anyone who knows that love is worth the work—and that sometimes, the best resolutions are made with a kiss.
