Most mixers will have a mic/line selector switch on the inputs (which is often just a pad anyway).

If you can't specifically find one that does, just do a search for "line mixer" - they range from the cheap to the ultra-expensive, as with everything. Not knowing your budget and not having really worked with any myself it's hard to recommend one specifically, but there are lots out there.

This for example serves the low end:

(NB - when it comes to dedicated line mixers, most are rackmounted, not the more traditional tabletop/fader style, in my experience)
