Everyone in the building loved the bake shop a lot.
Except for the guy on the top floor, who most certainly did not.
If it were up to him, there wouldn’t be a hint of Christmas in the building.
For two months out of the year, Daphne Noelle got to live her dream of owning a bakery. Her little pop-up bake shop—one that looked just like a gingerbread house—brought joy to every customer who stopped by to enjoy her sweet treats. She loved meeting people and making them smile, and being in such a festive setting every day was just the icing on the cake! For the last three years, everything had gone smoothly, but this year, there was one guy who was determined to ruin it all.
One of the things Tristan appreciated most about the office complex where his architecture firm was located is how upscale and elegant it was. Unfortunately, every year for eight long weeks, a holiday shop set up in the lobby, turning it into the equivalent of a traveling circus, and the bake shop booth was the worst offender. The giant gingerbread house was an eyesore and the woman running it was too cheery for his liking. This year, he was determined to do everything he could to have her and her booth removed.
When Tristan finds himself in the middle of a delicate family situation, only Daphne can help him. Now, he’ll have to beg and plead and promise to be on his best behavior while dealing with her exuberant holiday joy. But the more time he spends with her—and the more awkward situations she saves him from—he begins to realize there’s more to her than over-the-top holiday cheer. And maybe, when you’re with the right person, Christmas can mean a little bit more.

The last person she expected to give her that purpose and offer her everything she’s been looking for was the man who nearly destroyed her family a decade ago.
For twelve years, Jax Wylder has lived with the guilt of causing the accident that nearly took his best friend’s life. Now that he’s looking at retirement after a successful NFL career, he wants to give back to his community—and maybe help clear his conscience—by opening a camp for kids with disabilities. It won’t change what happened to his best friend, but it’s something he feels strongly about. When he learns that Lucy is a pediatric physical therapist, she’s the perfect person to enlist for help. Only he’s surprised to learn that she not only despises him, but blames him for everything that’s gone wrong in her life.
It doesn’t take long for Lucy to realize that she might not have the entire story about Jax and that fateful night twelve years ago. Now she has to balance making amends and fighting the inconvenient but undeniable attraction she feels for him. They have a lot to overcome, but there’s no denying that sometimes there really is a fine line between love and hate.
