She's a hot mess in the kitchen and in her personal life. He's the guy next door with a reputation. Can they bake up a little holiday magic, or is she just his cookie of the week?
Hope
My life’s a mess. But things are starting to look up when my catering business finally gets local recognition.
When my oven overheats in the middle of baking cookies for the annual gingerbread house decorating contest, the smokin’ hot guy next door offers to help with my goodies.
Drake is a steamy cup of hot cocoa, and I’d love to dip my cookie in his cream.
But can I trust my heart to a guy with a notorious reputation and bachelorhood emblazoned across his chest?
Drake
Voted Cranberry Corner’s most eligible bachelor is an honor, but it’s not who I aspire to be.
Full disclosure: I’m tired of serial dating and one-night stands. I want the deluxe relationship package with all the sprinkles and cream filling.
Problem is I’ve found the red-headed woman of my dreams, but she thinks I’m nothing more than a smooth-talking player.
Hope is a curvy swirl of cinnamon and sugar, and I’d love to taste her candied ginger center.
Can I convince her I’m ready for a happily ever after, but only with her?
***
Warning: When this smooth-talking playboy tumbles head over heels in love with our sweet-as-sin curvy baker, he’ll do whatever it takes to win her heart. If you love cinnamon roll alphas, curvy women, and sticky sweet steamy romance, then you’ll love Hope and Drake.
***
If you’re a hopeful romantic at heart and love steamy, short, small-town, swoony romances, then Cranberry Corner is the place for you. Don your mittens and prepare for a cookie dough fight that’ll give you all the warm, toasty feels. Guaranteed HEA with no cliffhangers.
