Among Angels by Rowan Nash

A rum ball incident, a doctor who saves the day, and a Christmas elf who has impeccably bad timing.
ER doctor Hawk Remington’s been offered the job of a lifetime, but it’s miles away from his family. Micah, his high school sweetheart, returns for the holiday festival parade as the hometown hero, sparking flames that Hawk doused in his heart long ago. When an unexpected diagnosis rocks the family, will Dr. Remington put his opportunity on hold to be the angel his family thinks he is?
Purple Heart recipient Captain Micah Brown hasn’t been home in twenty years, but it seems nothing’s changed, including how his heart pounds around Hawk–Dr. Remy to the town now. Micah never let himself feel before, but now all he can do is notice how he wants Hawk. It wasn’t right twenty years go, but an elf, a tree, and a little magic might be what they need to make it all come together.
Can Hawk find peace with the past and can Micah find hope in the future?
