Beschreibung des Verlags
This Christmas season, love comes where you least expect it.
For Jessica Connolly, there is no better place than her coastal hometown of Blue Moon Bay. She has a wonderful family, supportive best friends, and a successful bakery on Main Street. Unfortunately, every time she designs one of her ex-boyfriends' wedding cakes, she's reminded just how unlucky she is with love...and that she's a good luck charm for men to find their happily ever after. With someone else. The minute they break up. So she's done with love.
Dr. Mitch Jameson is more comfortable traveling the world with Doctors Without Borders than staying in one place. He just needs to survive the holidays in his small hometown before he can leave again. The beautiful, intriguing bakery owner with an aversion to dating might be just who
he needs to occupy his restless heart.
From sipping hot chocolates at the local festival of lights to early morning dessert deliveries, Jessica and Mitch rediscover the spirit of the holidays. But when the 25 days of Christmas are over, will their romance be over, too?
Each book in the Blue Moon Bay series is STANDALONE:
* A Lot Like Love
* A Lot Like Christmas
* A Lot Like Forever
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Things get stickier than fruit cake when a transient holiday fling sparks lasting love in Snow's delightful second Blue Moon Bay novel (after A Lot Like Love). Vivacious 29-year-old bakery owner Jessica Connolly has had every detail of her wedding planned out since childhood—she's just missing the groom. All of her recent exes have gone on to marry the next woman they date, making her doubt she'll ever get her own chance to be a bride. Enter 39-year-old Mitch Jameson, who returns home to Blue Moon Bay, Calif., for the month of December after years away with Doctors Without Borders. When he notices Jessica, their 10-year age difference does nothing to deter him from asking her out. He's honest about what he can offer her, given his plans to leave again on Christmas Day, but their temporary tryst gets complicated when their emotions get involved. Can they figure out how to join their lives without creating resentment? Though some of Jessica's antics along the way come off as immature, Snow makes up for it by filling her small town with well-shaded characters, strong neighborly ties, and heaps of holiday spirit. This cute, cozy outing is sure to please.
