Christmas at the Café by Emily Childs

A chef with overflowing Christmas spirit. An author with a grinchy amount of writer’s block. And one cozy café that could make this a match made in heaven, or the perfect mix for a bah-humbug holiday.

When a rogue snowball knocks her off her feet, Jeri Hunt’s perfect Christmas season is flipped upside down and lands her into the arms of a delightfully handsome stranger. But since holidays keep her life as chef at a small town café on turbo speed, she doesn’t need the distraction of a mistletoe-worthy face in the back booth.
After Chase Thorn inherits his grandpa’s old house, all he sees is a quiet mountain refuge to heal a nasty case of writer’s block. Until a sassy chef crashes into his life and unlocks inspiration he didn’t see coming. Her quirks and wild ideas stir more than words for his next novel.
But as deadlines and big city life call, will they choose to make a whirlwind fling last, or is this a romance that was always meant to end?
