Welcome to Yule, where the lights sparkle, the gossip travels fast, and second chances are harder to resist than warm gingerbread.

Mia Mulrooney has everything she could ever want: her thriving bakery, her cosy village, and a peaceful life free of August, the brooding guitarist who ghosted her two years ago on New Year’s Eve.

But August is back in town for a New Year’s wedding, and a fierce snowstorm traps them together for the weekend in Yule’s oldest castle. As the storm rages outside, their undeniable chemistry ignites. Amid stolen kisses beneath twinkling mistletoe and whispered confessions in the dead of night, Mia’s frozen heart begins to thaw. Yet, as midnight approaches, she must confront her feelings: can she forgive him and find the courage to let love back into her life?
