A category length holiday novel from New York Times bestselling author Vivian Arend.
All Bradley Ford wants this holiday season is a date or three with sweet Hanna Lane. He’s the new fire chief, recently returned to Heart Falls to help his father after an accident. And while he wasn’t expecting to find someone like Hanna so soon, Brad’s certain that Hanna—and her adorable daughter, Crissy—are perfect for him and his plans to settle down.
Hanna’s been taking care of herself since she became a single mom at sixteen. The only pure, honest love she trusts is her little girl’s, but for the first time in eight years, her libido flares to life. Something about Brad draws her like a moth to a flame—which is always a bad idea for the moth.
When a fire leaves Hanna and Crissy homeless, Brad offers them shelter at his family’s homestead. Crissy insists they’ve moved in with Santa. Hanna’s not sure how she keeps ending up under the mistletoe with Brad. And Brad? He’s hoping for the best Christmas gift of all…
What I thought about A Firefighter's Christmas Gift
Brad Ford really likes Hannah Lane, but she has reservations. With an eight year old daughter and a past she'd like to keep in her rear view mirror, even though she likes Brad, she's not quite ready to take the leap into a relationship.
Complicating matters is a fire that wipes out Hannah and Crissy, that leaves her to rebuild her life yet again and Brad riding a fine line of patience and persuasion when they move in with him and his father Patrick for the holidays.
There's a nice smattering of characters from other books in the Heart Falls series, and Patrick and Crissy were as perfect together as Brad and Hannah.
There is just so much sweetness in this story. After all, it is a Christmas story and it does not disappoint at all when it comes to shining a big ole spotlight on the loving spirit of family and friends. Brad and Hannah's story is the perfect escape and an antidote to the stresses of the real world. I enjoyed every minute of this read.
