Midnight Kiss Countdown

Snowfall, silence, and a marriage on pause—some hearts only need a little holiday light to shine again.

Beth Brockington thought she had everything figured out until her marriage fell apart just before the holidays. Now she's navigating twin five-year-olds, a bustling family store, and trying not to think about the empty space where her husband used to be. The last thing she expects is to feel her heart skip when Brett shows up looking like the man she fell in love with instead of the stranger they'd both become.

Brett knows they lost their way somewhere between building a life and living it—and when he sees Beth laughing across the Town Square the way she used to laugh with him, he realizes what they had is worth fighting for.

With nosy neighbors, well-meaning matchmakers, and a town that practically runs on Christmas magic pushing them back together, Beth and Brett must decide if their love can be rekindled or if some bridges are too far gone to rebuild.

Midnight Kiss Countdown is the second book in the Holiday Matchmaker Series by C.K. Darling—a short, emotional second-chance romance about a love worth fighting for, set against the backdrop of a small-town Georgia Christmas, perfect for listeners who know that sometimes the best resolutions start with a single kiss.
