Gingerbread Café

The icing on her Christmas cake! Christmas is the season the Gingerbread Café in Ashford, Connecticut was made for...but owner Lily couldn't be feeling less merry if she tried. She's spent another year dreaming of being whisked away on a sleigh-ride for two, but she's facing festive season alone - again. And, just to give her another reason to feel anything other than candy-cane perky, a new shop across the road has opened... Not only is it selling baked goods, but the owner, with his seriously charming smile, has every girl in town swooning. But Lily isn't about to let her business crumble - the Gingerbread Café is the heart of the community, and she's going to fight for it! This could be the Christmas that maybe, just maybe, all her dreams - even the someone-to-decorate-the-Christmas-tree-with ones - really do come true!

Chocolate...the most irresistible temptation? The Gingerbread Café is all a buzz! This Easter, Lily and the rest of the town of Ashford, Connecticut are planning a truly decadent Chocolate Festival. Cooking up a storm, CeeCee and Lily are not just baking a batch of their sinfully delicious chocolate-dipped gingerbread men, but an excess of chocolate truffles, squidgy, cinnamony hot cross buns and melt in your mouth chocolate eggs. The Gingerbread Café staff have definitely enjoyed the tasting process! Add in Damon's cute-as-a-button seven year old daughter, Charlie, up for a visit and Lily's perfect Easter may just be around the corner. Until her ex-husband Joel turns up demanding twenty thousand dollars... Suddenly the future of the Gingerbread Café is not so clear...and Lily finds herself eating far more of The Gingerbread Café's treats than her skinny jeans allow... Can Lily concoct a brilliant plan to save her beloved café, convince Damon she has no feelings for Joel and still throw a Chocolate Festival the town will be talking about for years? There's only one way to find out... Welcome back to the warmth, cupcakes and hot chocolate of The Gingerbread Café - your home away from home.
