Hope and Hot Chocolate on Mistletoe Lane: The BRAND NEW Christmas small town romance for fans of Gilmore Girls and The Pumpkin Spice Cafe from Victoria Walters for 2026

A Christmas to remember...

... in a town she'd rather forget

Holly Wynter never planned to return to Birchbrook. But when an old friend calls with a festive job opportunity, it could be just what her fledgling events business needs. So reluctantly, she agrees to return to create the world’s best festive experience at Birch Tree Farm. Even though she hates Christmas with all her lonely heart.

Paul Ryan hasn’t seen Holly for ten years, ever since that fateful day she ran away. While she dreamed of a high-flying career in the city, he stayed in Birchbrook, helping his parents run the local café. Though these days he’s been wondering if he’s meant for something bigger.

As Christmas lights twinkle across the town, old memories resurface and long-buried feelings begin to stir. But Holly can’t stay in Birchbrook, even if it might hold the key to her happiness.

Could this holiday season be the chance to finally admit they want to be - and maybe always have been - more than best friends?
