THE CHRISTMAS COOKIE
SHOP
(Christmas Town, Book
1)
Hannah Winchester is
down on her luck and disillusioned with love, but her fortunes are about to
change. When Hannah inherits a defunct bakery in East Tennessee, her first
thought is to sell it and settle her substantial debt. Then the townsfolk
welcome her warmly and she’s taken with the joyful spirit of the place, where
stores employ holiday themes and residents have surnames like Christmas and
Claus. After a handsome lawman comes to her aid dressed as Santa, Hannah learns
he’s more than a hot guy in a red suit and shiny black boots. Sheriff Carter
Livingston has joined in the cause of rejuvenating the town, and he’s
encouraging her to do her part. Hannah’s great-grandmother, Lena, sold special
holiday cookies that brought hope and renewal to the people of Christmas Town.
Yet Hannah has plans elsewhere and isn’t looking to stay. Can she possibly
reopen the shop known for kindling romance—without sacrificing her heart?
Book Excerpt:
He met her eyes. “Hannah…?”
Her chin tilted up toward his. “Yes, Carter?”
“You going to be okay here? I can always call Sandy—”
“No, please. Sandy’s already done enough. So have Lou and
Kurt, and…” She ducked her head with a blush. “You, Santa.”
“Kind of funny meeting that way.” When she looked up he was
grinning. “Funny, but not bad—by any stretch.”
“No. Not bad at all.”
Hannah noticed his jacket slung over the back of the
armchair and that he’d set his hat on the table by the door. Carter lifted the
jacket and slipped into it, raising its zipper. “Might want to stick that bowl
of stew in the microwave for a minute or two.”
“I’ll do that,” she said brightly.
He ambled toward the door and placed his hat on his head,
tapping it down. His deep voice rumbled. “Kurt’s a good-looking guy.”
“Kurt?” Hannah asked, flummoxed.
“Eligible bachelor too.”
“Can’t say I noticed.”
“No? I thought I heard the two of you talking from the
kitchen—”
“Sheriff.” She stopped him. “I’m not interested in any man
right now, okay? And if I
were…” Hannah swallowed hard past the lump in her throat.
“If you were…?” he said, leading.
Hannah’s heart hammered and her knees felt weak. “I told
you, I’m just passing through.”
“Odd thing about that, Hannah.” He tipped his hat her way.
“Nobody in town seems to know that, but me.”
Then he stepped out the door, shutting it soundly behind
him.
