As owner of her beloved Gingerbread Bakery, Annie Andrews should have a love life to match her business; sugary and sweet. But instead, she’s locked in a game of words with the irritatingly upbeat bar owner down the street.
Mac Sullivan has everything he wants, except the girl he dreams of. It’s easier to argue with Annie than get her to talk to him but with Jeanie and Logan’s wedding coming up, they're about to spend a lot more time together.
As the snowflakes fall and with romance in the air, will Annie see that the one she loves to hate might just be her perfect match after all?
The Gingerbread Bakery is a cozy romantic novel with an enemies to lovers dynamic, small-town setting and a HEA guaranteed!

PRAISE FOR THE PUMPKIN SPICE CAFE:
‘Gives off the same level of endorphins as taking a sip of an actual pumpkin spice latte… all the makings of a top tier Hallmark movie that happens to include a nice dash of spice’—People
‘With a name this cute and a cover this autumnal, how could I not cozy up with my blanket and relax with this adoring book?’—New York Post
‘Witty and fun… set in a small town an entertaining enemies-to-lovers read that gives all the feels’ Reader review
‘I truly adored the setting, this adorable little town where I'd move in a heartbeat, and Jeanie and Logan were absolutely fantastic’ Reader review
‘Fall is my favorite season and this book totally captured that perfectly’ Reader review
‘This book is what happens when you turn a pumpkin spice latte into a story… perfect for fans of Hallmark movies’—People
As for the story, while the dual timelines were handled well, the magic of the season, something that usually shines in this series, was sorely missing, limited to baking some cookies and watching the lights. The festive touches that typically bring Dream Harbour to life were absent, making the setting feel generic. I also struggled with the female main character, who came across as spiteful rather than spirited. The enemies-to-lovers arc dragged on too long, losing the charm it might have had.
That said, attending Logan and Jeanie’s wedding was a highlight and nicely done. The nightie episode was charming. But overall, this book just didn’t deliver the heart or holiday spirit I’ve come to love in the series.
Disappointing instalment in a beloved series
