Produktbeschreibung

For Poppy Holiday, only one thing matters, rebuilding the bakery she inherited from her grandmother. But that's going to be difficult with her primary oven out of commission. She needs money and needs it fast. The best way to get it is to win Cranberry Cove's annual Christmas gingerbread house competition. There's only one thing standing in the way certain victory and the cash prize she so desperately needs; Darius Badeaux, the one man she swore she'd never love again.

More than a decade ago, Darius left his hometown in shame. Caught up in his reputation as a bad boy, he did the most unforgivable thing a teenage boy could do. He'd stood up his prom date. Now, he needs her help to prove he in no longer the renegade they'd known. It was too much to ask, but he needs Poppy to allow him to be part of her gingerbread team. She has every right to refuse him after what he'd done, but he's counting on her generous nature and the spirit of Christmas.

Will the season of giving bring them together to build the perfect gingerbread house and salvage their careers, or will the past crush their dreams and their hearts?

Autorenporträt

Katie O'Connor lives part time in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. She married her high school sweetheart and is living her happily ever after. She is the mother of two grown daughters and is extremely proud of her five grandchildren. She has two wonderful sons-in-law and a large support network of friends, family and fellow authors.

Katie's career path has been long and twisted, with most of her life devoted to her family. She's been a waitress, chambermaid, cashier, store manager, as well as a lab and x-ray technician. Katie trained in martial arts for a while and tried distance running. She likes to shoot and for a few years performed in numerous staged gun battles with a theatrical group, Guns of the Golden West, at various venues including the Calgary Stampede. Katie played box lacrosse for a while and even coached for a year. The team she coached won the gold medal in Canada's first ever Junior B Girl's Box Lacrosse Championship. She is an avid quilter and for a number of years owned and operated a home-based quilting business and designed quilt patterns.

Early in her writing career she wrote seven novels while raising twin girls. With family life taking up much her time, she put writing on hold until life calmed down. Now she spends her time reading and writing while splitting her time between Calgary and her bush retreat called Sanctuary. She reads many different genres and has started numerous books, many of which are ongoing, back burner projects. Her favorite writing spot is on her land where she can listen the wind in the trees and be inspired by the deer that often wander by.

She believes in all things magical including dragons, fairies, UFOs, ghosts, and house pixies. But most of all she believes in love, romance and hope.

Katie likes to make it up as she goes along and dreams of publishing a mixed genre novel. It is going to be an erotic, shape shifter, vampire, steampunk, sci-fi, murder mystery, adventure, romantic, western, historical, thriller. It will be her biography.
