5⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
3.5🔥🔥🔥🥵

“Tash always told me that midnight was for lovers. That break in time that turns night to day, giving love a fresh start. But I think maybe it’s just that it’s the darkest hour and you can see the brightness more clearly then.”


This is one magical story that gives me the impression of a dreamy cozy feeling that only comes with the magic of Christmas, one that’s told of believing in soulmate palm reading. It’s a tale beautifully narrated by Tor Thom and Savannah Peachwood one that I will definitely listened to again! 


GREY
An injured ex-pro baseball player,
Ruggedly handsome and a bit of a loner, a bit sad, but oh so protective and sexy. 
Grey who along with his brother are in Maine and have invested in The Timekeeper Inn.
He wasn’t looking for love but there’s something magical about the town and the place he invested in that he just can’t explain. 
And so begin the magical journey. 

“He's not here for me, even though it feels like he's exactly who I've been waiting for."

AURORA
Raised by Matchmakers who always told her about the magic surrounding the Inn and lighthouse, a tale told of people meeting their soulmates on December nights! 
The beautiful Aurora was so taken with this magical tale that she was convinced that this December she would meet her soulmate for sure.. but still…she had a bit of doubt.. 
could this Grumpy handsome man be her soulmate.. ?…she so desperately wanted him to be yet .. she wondered!

𝗜’𝗺 𝗱𝗿𝗼𝘄𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘄𝗵𝗲𝗻𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿 𝗜’𝗺 𝗶𝗻 𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝘅𝗶𝗺𝗶𝘁𝘆–𝗻𝗼 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗿𝗼𝗹, 𝗷𝘂𝘀𝘁 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗽𝗹𝗲𝘁𝗲 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘂𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘀𝘂𝗺𝗽𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻. "

Such a beautiful story again wonderfully written by author new to me (definitely will be looking forward to more of her writing) and beautifully executed by Tor Thom and Savanah Peachwood with the right amount of Spice! 
it’s one I would definitely recommend listening!

This is my December. I’m not being naive or overly optimistic. I have it on good authority that this year, I will meet my soulmate and fall madly in love. The matchmaker who raised me said that it’ll happen by this Winter’s Solstice. Merry Christmas to me, right?
Wrong. 
Because the man who just slid into my kitchen at midnight, unarmed me with his charming smile, and lit me up while licking frosting from my fingers is the newest investor in The TimeKeeper Inn. Gray Turner, the disgraced professional baseball player, wants to renovate and take over the place I call home.
There’s no way that he could possibly be “the one,” even if I do happen to feel some kind of magic every time he’s near. I’ll ignore the fact that his gruff and stoic demeanor melts away only for me. I have to remind myself that I need to keep my heart open for my soulmate because Gray isn't staying. I want that forever kind of love. But what if forever isn’t part of our plan?

What if soulmate-level love is just for the holidays?

A must read Listen for sure !
