He went to prison for saving her. She never stopped writing.

When Jaxon Ward steps into the freezing night to stop a stranger from attacking a woman, he never expects to be the one in handcuffs. Charged with assault and carrying a record he can’t outrun, Jaxon lands behind bars—again. But this time, someone saw him. Someone who knows what really happened.
Mara “M” Whitaker owes Jaxon her life. What begins as a thank-you note turns into a series of letters—raw, honest, and full of things neither of them expected to say. From behind bars and through the seasons, their bond grows—built on grief, gratitude, humor, and the kind of connection that doesn’t fade.

But when Jaxon is released just days before Christmas, he doesn’t believe he’s someone worth waiting for. And Mara? She’s not sure if he even remembers the hope she tucked between every envelope.

This Christmas, they’ll have to decide if words on paper can become something real—if love can bloom in the quietest winter of all.
Letters to December is a soulful, slow-burn romance about second chances, quiet bravery, and the kind of love that finds you when you stop running.
