Rob is burnt out on his medical career back in Seattle and moves to Hartbridge to take a part time job at the clinic. Soren has been in Hartbridge a few years and while he loves the community, he's envious of the happy couples. When Rob moves in next door, it might finally be Soren's chance to be shot by the Hartbridge Christmas Cupid.  

Rob is mentally recovering from the stress of being a city trauma doctor and, as they all do, he finds the change of pace he needs in the small but sweet town of Hartbridge. The last thing he expects to find is a perfect partner in his new firefighter neighbor. Soren is immediately taken with the new, older doctor in town, and while he falls hard and fast he doesn't want to pressure Rob. But it's hard to take things slow when their chemistry is off the charts and the only thing they want is to spend time together. I loved how Soren was so respectful of Rob's boundaries. They both really wanted to make sure their relationship was successful and didn't burn out. They are both caretakers with a spicy side that makes for a sweet and sexy relationship. 

This whole series was the perfect December read and Rob and Soren's story was a perfect ending! (For now? Will there be more? Who knows). There is definitely something in the air in Hartbridge around Christmas, brining all these lovely couples together. Their group starts as a few kindred spirits but turns into a warm and welcoming family for all and any queer couples. I loved all their shenanigans but also the support and love they have for one another. A fun, low angst read full of endearing characters and happy vibes.
