Ivy Douglas writes the warm, feel-good features nobody clicks on anymore, so a Christmas profile of Barlow’s Bakehouse could save her job. She’s expecting the smiling, silver-haired man on the bakery boxes. The broad-shouldered, strikingly good-looking man climbing off a motorcycle must be making a delivery—until he unlocks the bakery.
Under pressure from corporate consultants to take his bakery national, Luke Barlow reluctantly agrees to Ivy’s magazine article—as long as his private life stays off the record. But somewhere between a ballet Luke doesn’t get and an ice rink he does, Ivy discovers the kindness behind his scowl. He’s letting her into his life, and she’s falling for him.
When her editor demands she publish personal details about Luke, Ivy must decide how much to put on the page—because saving her career could mean losing his trust.
A sweet, no-spice Christmas romance set in New York City.
