Overview

Bad news always comes in threes.

Who would think the mailman could ruin a perfect day? Certainly not chef Granger Braden, who’s about to start his dream career with the renowned La Patisserie Bakery in Paris. Until he opens one of his beloved Aunt Maggie’s signature pink envelopes and reads her simple note: “I’m happy for your success, but I need you to come home now.”

The vision Granger had of his future crumbles at his feet. It can’t get worse, he thinks until he arrives home to find a stranger living in the apartment above Aunt Maggie’s bakery.

Carter Stone had a successful contractor business and life he shared with his lover and business partner. Then tragedy strikes when the world shuts down. The jobs, Carter’s partner, and his finances all disappear like a wisp of smoke.

Just as he’s coming up for air, tragedy strikes again and a fatal accident leaves Carter’s resentful nephew CJ in need of a guardian.

When they meet, Granger and Carter distrust each other immediately. Survival becomes the catalyst forcing them to grow close quickly and help each other rebuild their lives.

But tragedy strikes for the third time when CJ goes missing. This is an age gap, enemies-to-lovers, romantic holiday tale.

Only a Christmas miracle can give this story a happy ever after.

I believe. Do You?
