The Fireman’s Christmas Wish by Nan Reinhardt

Genre Contemporary romance

Book heat level (based on movie ratings): PG

Her heart is wide open, but he’s nailed his shut.

Preschool teacher Harley Cole has always viewed life through rose-colored glasses. With a career she loves, friends she enjoys, and a home that is her haven, there’s only one thing missing—finding her soul mate. As the holidays approach, Harley is inspired to help her former high school crush rediscover his holiday joy. It’s just a good deed…until the feelings she thought were gone come rushing back.

Fire Chief Becker Lange returns home to River’s Edge with a heavy heart. His divorce has emotionally ravaged him, leaving him more confused than ever about what women want. So to protect himself from another failure, he closes his heart. And then Harley Cole makes him a flirty dare that she can help him overcome the holiday blues. Beck’s not sure he wants to, but Harley’s a hard woman to tell no.

Can the magic of Christmas and a sweet stray kitten bring these two lonely souls together?

Tell us about yourself as a person.

What is your personality type?

I’m pretty laid back and easy, but I’ll fight for those I love. I’m whatever is between an extrovert and introvert—I can step up if I need to, but I’m happier in the background.

What is your favorite subject to talk about?

Besides my darling Grandboy? France or writing—either one. I loved, loved Paris when I went there several years ago and would go back in a heartbeat. And getting together with other writers to talk craft is one of my very favorite things to do.

What is your favorite book?

Whatever one I’m currently reading—I have way too many favorites to pick just one.

What is your favorite meal?

Warm French bread and a charcuterie board that contains meats, cheeses, fruit, and fresh veggies. Maybe chocolate. Oh and wine… ;-)

Tell us about yourself as a writer.

What are your favorite books for writing advice?

Stephen King’s On Writing is excellent, and Lani Diane Rich’s How Story Works is absolutely fabulous!

What are your favorite reference books?

I love Angela Ackerman’s One Stop for Writers website and all her books—she’s an amazing resource. I’m also a freelance copy editor, so I’m devoted to the Chicago Manual of Style for all things grammar, spelling, and style related.

What’s your best advice for a new writer?

Read, read, read and then read some more in the genre you’ve chosen to write in. Know what the expectations are for contemporary romance or Regency or whatever you’ve chosen. And then write every day, even if all you get in are 100 words, write every day. Don’t be afraid of criticism. It’s how you grow as a writer.

What are your writing goals for the next year or so?

To write the last book in the Weaver Sisters trilogy for Tule Publishing and then to start the new series that I’m contracted for with Tule. I want to grow the town of River’s Edge—my little fictional town on the Ohio River and to keep working on editing gigs because they are my bread and butter.
