Description

Yule Be Mine (The Yule Be)
By Joseph Blake Paul — Paperback, November 23, 2025

Ethan Marks has spent years building a carefully ordered life in Seattle—clean lines, predictable routines, and a professional world where emotions are tidily kept out of sight. But when the holidays pull him back to Pine Hollow, the snowy mountain town he once called home, Ethan finds himself standing face-to-face with everything he left behind: family expectations, buried memories, and a season he’s long stopped believing in.

Then he meets Lucas Rivera. Warm-hearted, effortlessly charming, and a little bit chaotic, Lucas is the musician determined to save Pine Hollow’s aging community center from permanent closure. Their personalities clash immediately—Ethan’s meticulous precision versus Lucas’s easygoing spontaneity—but a shared goal throws them together: planning a Christmas charity concert that just might keep the heart of the town alive.

As twinkle lights go up and rehearsals fill the cold nights with music, Ethan’s guarded world begins to thaw. Lucas challenges him, surprises him, and nudges him to imagine a life far richer than the one he’s been carefully maintaining. Pine Hollow, with its snowy streets and open-hearted neighbors, begins to feel like more than a place from Ethan’s past—it starts to feel like somewhere he could belong.

Amid small-town traditions, unexpected laughter, and moments of quiet connection, Ethan must decide what the season truly means to him—and whether Lucas might be a part of the future he never dared to picture.

A tender holiday romance about second chances, rediscovery, and the warmth waiting on the other side of vulnerability, Yule Be Mine is a cozy, heartfelt celebration of finding love—right where you least expect it.
