Fire in My Heart by Lea Coll

The last thing I need is another person to protect. But for her, I might make an exception…
Hiring the sunny marketer, the one with boundless enthusiasm, wasn’t my idea.

My dad insisted on hiring Charlotte. Her mission? To market our fledgling Christmas tree farm. My mission?
Figure out why she’s triggering all my cop instincts.
Something is telling me to keep a close eye on her—especially when she takes up temporary residence on the farm. And I’m sure it has nothing to do with how she looks in an elf costume.
Well, I’m pretty sure, anyway.
The point is, I have too many responsibilities to even think about romance, no matter how much she’s making me wish I could.
But protecting people is what I do. So, when whatever—or whoever—she’s running from catches up to her, I know I can keep her safe.
What remains to be seen is if I’ll be able to protect myself (and my heart) when it’s time to let her go…

Fire In My Heart is a spicy, grumpy sunshine, enemies to lovers, small town holiday contemporary romance that can be read as a standalone.
