Gingerbread & Sugar: A Later in Life Friends to Lovers Small Town Christmas Romance (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798277683156)

Two longtime friends. One gingerbread contest. Everything's about to change.

Hazel Brooks has been perfecting her baking skills at Rising Tide Bakery for years, creating confections that make the whole town smile. She's also been ignoring the way her heart speeds up whenever Cole Bennett walks through the door.

Cole Bennett runs Salt & Sugar Market with the same steady precision he brings to everything else in life. What he can't manage is his growing awareness that his best friend since culinary school has become something much more dangerous to his carefully ordered world.

But Christmas has a way of stirring up more than cookie batter. When Katie and Eleanor conspire to enter them both in a gingerbread contest, flour fights and sabotage rumors give way to sugar-sweet confessions and the realization that some recipes are worth the risk-especially when the main ingredient is love.

Fans of Jenny Hale, Tricia Lynne, and Melissa Foster will devour this friends-to-lovers romance that proves the sweetest love stories are baked with equal parts friendship and forever.

A sweet 30-minute Christmas romance you can read while sampling holiday cookies.

Set in Silver Sound, Alaska-the charming small town from the Love in Alaska series where romance blooms even in the coldest winters.
