Gingerbread & Jingle Bells

You never get a second chance at a first kiss… She's a big-city executive with a cool head for business. He's a small-town veterinarian with a passion for saving injured wildlife. As children, they'd been the best of friends, until the day Eve had so determinedly—and somewhat disastrously—kissed Daniel on the lips, just before his family moved back to England. This December, they're both back in town, and Eve's grandmother is on a mortifyingly obvious matchmaking mission. But Daniel has come back to Masterson to put down roots; Eve will be gone after the bakery's holiday rush. Nothing good could come from falling for the tall, dark, and British version of her childhood sidekick. Yet the more time they spend together, the harder it is to resist the temptation to take a second chance at that first kiss. After all, one little kiss before Christmas won't change their lives… will it? A heartwarming wintery romance from a USA Today Bestselling Author and RITA Award winner, set in a wonderfully unique 1980s setting. Perfect for fans of sweet and sincere happily-ever-afters. "Caro Carson writes books that touch the heart; they're witty, wise, emotional and filled with intricately layered, fascinating characters." --NEW YORK TIMES bestselling author RaeAnne Thayne
