Hugh

Belle Thornton knows she’s a cliché. She’s the proverbial spinster, with a bookstore and several cats to her name. She loves her life despite the snickers of the locals in Holly Oaks, Georgia. Her only secret is her crush on the town grump, Hugh McAllister…

Hugh has a reputation to maintain. He keeps his distance from others in Holly Oaks by replying with signature grunts and abrupt behavior. No one seems to see through this act, except the beautiful Belle Thornton…

What happens when their booths are next to each other at Holly Oaks Holiday Market? Will sparks fly, leaving both singed? Or will they find the love of a lifetime right in time for Christmas?
