Publisher's summary
Secrets. Warm spices. Holiday love. And a message in a bottle!
Former reality TV starlet Jessamyn Fleet is in hiding.
She’s living the Sugarplum Falls version of witness protection: running the Gingerbread Inn bed and breakfast—and keeping off her famous ex’s radar.
Jessamyn has changed her look, her name, her world. Instead of living the glamorous life, she’s making warm-spices-laced breakfasts and providing her guests cozy hospitality. All she needs now is to pay off that unwise loan she borrowed from that horrible loan shark to buy the place, and she can exhale—by Christmas.
Thank goodness she has an anonymous pen pal, Santa Claus of San Nouveau, to confide in and give her guidance.
Sugarplum Falls’ #1 hotel owner, bachelor Cliff Rockingham,
gave up chairmanship of his charity, Presents for People, this year. Instead, he’s determined to do something deeply meaningful for Christmas. Something life-changing for an individual. But what?
Plus, there's the little matter of saving his business, Sweetwater Hotel. Why is it suddenly hemorrhaging money?
When Cliff retrieves a desperate message in a bottle from Sugarplum Falls, he’s gifted a chance to achieve that goal! He can create meaningful change in the life of the most beautiful tourist he’s ever seen.
It’s perfect! Until … he learns Jessamyn isn’t a tourist. And the two hotel rivals become the latest targets of the matchmaking mayor of Sugarplum Falls.
Read Christmas at Gingerbread Inn, book 5 in the Sugarplum Falls Romance series by USA Today bestselling author Jennifer Griffith and fall in love with Cliff, Jessamyn, and Sugarplum Falls in this snowy Christmastime pen pal romance.
All the books in the Sugarplum Falls Romance series are CLEAN STANDALONE romances with a happily ever after, swirling with blizzards of Christmas charm.

Story
Romance can be a little complicated when you get sucked into a wormhole. Just ask high school English teacher June Flint. One little solar flare happens and suddenly you find yourself 85 years in the future. Eighty-five years from your dream job. Your ailing mother whose only companion in this world is you. Your favorite stuffed-crust pizza from DeLucia’s on Sunday nights. But when June’s cell phone inexplicably picks up a signal, she’s able to call back to the present—more specifically, four weeks before she accidentally time traveled.
