From the USA Today bestselling author of Christmas at the Cottage comes the perfect holiday romance for "readers seeking a peppermint-filled, cozy Christmas contemporary" ( Publishers Weekly ).

Sure, running her own bakery is a little harder than she expected, but she can handle it. And she'll prove it to a certain infuriatingly handsome, bossy Big City guy. She may be sugar and spice, but she can kick his butt twice.

If he's not careful, Kara won't just melt his icy resolve against a small-town Christmas . . . she'll melt his heart too. The mistletoe is out, and the gloves are off . . .
