Snowed In on Christmas (Hearthridge Holidays Book 5)

By: Laurel Leigh

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

Snowed in at the Snowdrift Inn. One long-ago almost-love. A Christmas that changes everything.

Emma Piper comes home for the holidays newly single and exhausted by the life that always has to look perfect. She tells herself it’s just one quiet Christmas to stop performing, catch her breath, and remember who she is to the people who knew her first. So why does leaving still sound easier than staying?

When the storm deepens and the power flickers out, Sawyer Hughes steps in from the snow with a lantern and the same steady presence she remembers from one unforgettable summer. Back then, she almost told him how she felt—but timing pulled them in different directions. Now, snowed in together years later, the timing finally matches the feeling.

When a Christmas Day blackout revives whispers about the Snowdrift Inn’s “curse” and a missing heart-shaped pendant everyone suddenly needs to find, Emma has to decide what she’ll carry forward: the glossy life she built to prove she was fine, or the imperfect, deeply rooted one that actually fits. Under twinkle lights and mistletoe, she faces the choice she’s avoided most—letting herself be seen…and letting herself stay.

An uplifting, sweet, clean small-town Christmas romance about second chances, family stories, and finding the kind of home you don’t have to perform for.
