Description

Childhood sweethearts. Second chances. And one magical Christmas…

Since chef Ruby left to chase her dreams in London and her family moved away, she’s not had reason to visit her tiny hometown… Until she’s invited to judge the charity gingerbread competition over the holidays, raising money for the local library where Ruby once loved getting cosy. But there’s Christmas mischief at work… Because her ex, Nathan, is a gingerbread judge too. 

He is broodier than she remembers, and twice as handsome. Ruby’s pulse races every time their hands brush reaching for the freshly baked treats. And when their eyes meet at the prize giving, it’s even harder to remember all the reasons she left.

Ruby can’t resist staying long enough to raise more awareness for the library charity. Then snowfall traps her in the village. As the fairy lights twinkle and carollers sing, she can’t seem to escape Nathan, and his broody exterior starts to crack… Is the magic of Christmas giving them a second chance?

But Ruby must get back to London for Christmas Day for work. Faced with saying another goodbye, she isn’t sure she wants to…

Grab a blanket and curl up by the fire with this completely addictive and absolutely gorgeous slow-burn festive romance. Fans of Sarah Morgan, Tracy Rees and Heidi Swain will love it!
