Valentine's With a Vampire

I, Declan Stewart, am an ex-military florist with a broken-down van, a town that won't let me leave, and a glowing lantern that insists I'm fated for love-specifically with the town's most alluring (and infuriating) vampire.Delivering Valentine's bouquets wasn't supposed to involve accidentally driving into a magical town, losing all cell service, and being told my van won't start again until a town festival decides my fate. Evershift Haven is a place where heart-shaped leaves fall from the sky, ghosts serve tea, and a glowing lantern follows me around like a clingy matchmaker. But none of that is half as unsettling as Vandria St. John-the sharp-tongued, wickedly beautiful vampire bookstore owner, who delights in toying with me. She swears the town's magic is real. I swear I'm leaving the second my van is fixed, but as the days pass, I start getting tangled in the town's charms, and Vandria's. Between scavenger hunts, enchanted chocolates, and a suspiciously invested group of small-town magical meddlers, I realize I might be falling for the very thing I swore I wouldn't. The real question is, when the festival ends, will I actually want to go? Welcome back to Evershift Haven-a town where magic thrives, romance is literally in the air, and even the most stubborn (and grumpy) outsiders might just find themselves believing in fate. This fifth book in the series is packed with cozy charm, quirky characters, and enough slow-burn tension to keep you reading way past bedtime.
