Tinsel & Tools

By Rachel Lyn Adams and Kimberly Knight

Cole Maddox isn't looking for romance. After a painful betrayal ends his marriage, he returns to his small hometown to work alongside his dad and keep his life simple. He knows his way around every tool in the box, but nothing prepares him for the writer from New York who tempts him with things he never imagined.

Gavin Price used to believe in love stories. Now he's grieving the loss of his parents, staring at a blank page, and wondering if he'll ever write again. Inheriting a rundown inn in snowy New England feels like one more burden, until the straight handyman renovating it helps him find inspiration.

As their connection deepens, Gavin's work begins to blur the line between fiction and reality. The story he's writing could expose the secret relationship they've tried to keep hidden, and Cole isn't sure if risking his heart is worth it when privacy is no longer certain.

Under the glow of twinkling lights and tinsel, a small-town handyman and a big city author might just discover that the best stories aren't the ones you plan, but the ones that linger long after the last page.

Tinsel & Tools is a holiday MM romance full of opposites attract tension, forced proximity, blue-collar heat, and a bi-awakening that turns a season of repair into a season of love.
