Last Christmas, Nina gave away her heart only to have it broken. But this year, at her familys cosy café, could she find a second chance at love with someone special under the mistletoe?
Nina Bailey loves Christmas. Except this year she doesnt. Because it turns out that her husband-to-be has been cheating on her and her beautiful wedding ceremony in the snow is cancelled.
Shes not really in the mood to be jolly, sing carols, or go anywhere near gingerbread men in fact, what Nina wants is to avoid the whole thing. So shes come to stay at her Aunt Dollys cosy café to nurse her broken heart.
Nina is determined to get through Christmas with no tinsel, no fuss and definitely no flirting. So when she arrives and meets infuriatingly handsome Ryan Sadler, with his gorgeous forest-green eyes, she is not best pleased. And when Nina overhears him making fun of her, she is furious. (There might have been an incident with a koala onesie and a spilled bottle of milk, but that really wasnt her fault!) So despite the spark between them, and the fact that he can whip up a fabulous dinner faster than she can say Michelin star, romance and Christmas are off the menu this year.
Unfortunately, Aunt Dolly hasnt quite got the message, going to great lengths to provide a proper British Christmas for her beloved niece: a true home away from home. With sparkling lights adorning every wall and a tree to equal the Rockefeller Centers and, yes, mistletoe above every doorway, can Nina resist the magic of Christmas and stick to her no-romance rule?..M.F
