Fruitcake for Christmas (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798316987429)

Elliot Apershine's yearly Christmas charity ball is in trouble-a sudden cancellation by his usual bakery has left his event dessert-less. If he doesn't want the attendees' checks to be as empty as their plates, he needs to find someone to fill the order, but in the middle of the holiday season, that's not an easy task. When his search leads him to Ash Preston, a man who is as sweet as the desserts he makes, Elliot hopes the ball will be saved...but his heart might be in danger.

Ever since moving to Everlight City, Ash Preston has dreamed of one day opening his own bakery. However, dreams don't put food on the table, so he works at a catering business and takes on any baking side gigs he can find, saving every penny possible toward his goal. A last-minute holiday order from a rich client could open a lot of doors for him, and Ash will do whatever it takes to make it work out...even if it means fighting some unexpectedly warm feelings toward the handsome and kind Mr. Apershine.

In the mix of holiday chaos, sweet treats, and a very cute stray cat, is it possible for something more to grow between them, or will that budding warmth collapse like a poorly made cake?

This clean, sweet holiday romance is the first in the Everlight City Romance series. The next book in the series, Scones for Valentine's, will release later this year.
