Secrets. Warm spices. Holiday love. And a message in a bottle.

Former reality TV starlet Jessamyn Fleet is in hiding.

She’s living the Sugarplum Falls version of witness protection: running the Gingerbread Inn bed and breakfast—and keeping off her famous ex’s radar.

Jessamyn has changed her look, her name, her world. Instead of living the glamorous life, she’s making warm-spices-laced breakfasts and providing her guests cozy hospitality. All she needs now is to pay off that unwise loan she borrowed from that horrible loan shark to buy the place, and she can exhale—by Christmas.

Thank goodness she has an anonymous pen pal, Santa Claus of San Nouveau, to confide in and give her guidance.

Sugarplum Falls’ #1 hotel owner, bachelor Cliff Rockingham, gave up chairmanship of his charity, Presents for People, this year. Instead, he’s determined to do something deeply meaningful for Christmas. Something life-changing for an individual. But what?

Plus, there’s the little matter of saving his business, Sweetwater Hotel. Why is it suddenly hemorrhaging money?

When Cliff retrieves a desperate message in a bottle from Sugarplum Falls, he’s gifted a chance to achieve that goal! He can create meaningful change in the life of the most beautiful tourist he’s ever seen.

It’s perfect! Until … he learns Jessamyn isn’t a tourist. And the two hotel rivals become the latest targets of the matchmaking mayor of Sugarplum Falls.
