A Small Town, Enemies to Lovers, Holiday Romance from New York Times bestselling author, Samantha Chase 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.
