She’s the sunshine baker too busy to celebrate her favorite holiday. He’s the guarded businessman who’d rather skip December altogether. What happens when a festive winter wish list forces them together?
Lily Richards has poured her heart—and every spare moment—into Purrfect Blend Cat Café, her thriving business in the small town of Golden Falls. Her dream has always been to buy the building her café is housed in. After careful saving, the funds are finally there and the timing seems perfect—until her landlord Hal Nelson shares there’s another potential buyer.
Gabriel Nelson sets foot in Golden Falls for one reason: business. After years of corporate projects that left him disillusioned, his grandfather’s building is the perfect investment to prove to his boss that community development is successful. This could finally be Gabe’s chance to build something meaningful.
But Lily and Gabe quickly realize the sale won’t be so simple. Hal refuses to sell to either of them until they complete the ten festive tasks on Lily’s forgotten winter wishlist.
What starts as trying to get the list done as quickly as possible shifts to not wanting the holiday season to end. Between late-night conversations, Christmas gifts, and swoony kisses under the mistletoe, their rivalry shifts into a genuine connection neither expected. With their futures tied to the same building, Lily and Gabe will have to decide what they want more—the building or each other.
