The Gingerbread Café

Rebecca Raisin's trilogy of festive novellas, set in the small town of Ashford, Connecticut, where Lil runs the Gingerbread Café alongside her friend CeeCee. It opens in the run-up to Christmas, when a newcomer named Damon opens a rival shop directly opposite and Lil resolves not to lose her customers without a fight. Three short, warm romances published by Carina UK between 2013 and 2014 and later gathered into a single collected volume.
