Holly Carlson went to London during her winter break at school. The smell of Christmas joy radiated through the air and so did the chill. Stopping into a sweet little shop in Covent Garden, Holly gets her cocoa and a special holiday treat. What could be better than spending the holiday with your family? Spending the holiday with them and bringing the one. Gavin Daniels does annual volunteering during the holidays. Every year he goes to a shop and serves warm drinks during the cold nights. He never knew that doing a good deed would come with such a great reward. Gavin had to make her stay before she learned that his family was a bit off-kilter and a part of the peerage.

The next book in the Covent Garden Series… will be written by my favorite resident Brit—Mary B. Moore.

No matter how she thrives, AJ Jenkins is the man she compares all others too. He just so happens to be the one that broke her heart. Seeing him, seeing the life she might have had with him, has been a very convincing reason to celebrate the holidays in the Pacific Northwest, happy in the rain instead of the snow.AJ Jenkins isn't exactly bitter and frigid. It's the below freezing temperatures, the knee deep snow, and the death of his chronically ill father dragging him down. That is until Cam Collins finally comes home for Christmas. After thirteen years, he'd almost given up on seeing her. And was incredibly happy about it. But thirteen is unlucky for a reason, and apparently that reason is still a klutzy, gorgeous, living memory determined to poke holes in his barely hanging on heart with death defying stilettos.
