Gingerbread Christmas: A Small Town Christmas Romance

By Christy Summers

A dedicated baker who lives by the rules. A wandering skier who lives for the moment. And their fake relationship is the only thing that can save their town's Christmas.

Olivia has built her bakery, and her life, on a foundation of discipline and control. When the town's Christmas festival gets canceled, she's strong-armed into a high-pressure gingerbread competition, her only chance to rescue the holiday magic for everyone.

Unfortunately, a ridiculous 'couples only' rule forces her to partner with Dylan, the charming, carefree ski bum who is the complete opposite of her carefully structured life. He's her best friend's brother, and the last man on Earth she'd ever rely on.

But as they move from a bitter rivalry to a surprisingly effective team, their pretend romance sparks an undeniable and inconvenient chemistry. Her meticulous plans clash with his spontaneous artistry, yet together, they create something magical. For Olivia, trusting him feels like the ultimate risk. For Dylan, staying in one place feels like a trap. Can two people who are terrified of being tied down build a love that's meant to last?

Cozy up with a mug of hot cocoa for this sparkling holiday romance, packed with small-town charm, forced proximity, and the sweet magic of finding love when you least expect it.
