A Christmas in New York (T’was the Spice Before Christmas #2) by Emily French – Free eBooks Download
Description:
Opposites attract…or so they say.
A once-in-a-lifetime job offer takes 28-year-old Emmy Parsons from her family’s home in Los Angeles, to her own apartment in New York City. She’s been hired to bring Ballantyne’s Bakery into the twenty-first century. Outwardly Emmy is bubbly and outgoing. Inwardly she struggles to see her curvy body in positive terms. To make up for her insecurities she’s always nice and likable, even when she doesn’t want to be. And there is one man in NYC who makes her want to strip off her nice exterior: Alec Ballantyne Connor. A rude, grumpy, and surly, yet “oh so hot” man. Good thing she’s got a man to love already…Mac, the tiny kitten who slips in through her apartment window one evening and buries his way into Emmy’s heart.
30-year-old Alec hates New York. If it were up to him, his family would sell the bakery, allowing him to leave the city once and for all and move to his cottage in Vermont where he can be a full-time craftsman instead of his family’s bakery and apartment building handyman. No more sidewalks piled high with trash, no more bossy New Yorkers, and no more feeling like a fish out of water against the backdrop of the uber rich. All he needs is for the bakery to fail with the new person at the helm and he may get his wish. Unfortunately, the new person is in the form of one vivacious, curvy, and beautiful Emmy. He tries his best to resist the pull towards her until a blizzard from hell blows through the city, stranding them both in his apartment for Christmas where they let down their guard and give in to their desires.
Alec begins to see the city through Emmy’s eyes, as a charming and magical place full of surprise and wonder. Emmy begins to understand Alec’s tough exterior. They soon fall for each other. But his pull to live in Vermont and her love for New York are at odds with a relationship. Can a life together give each of them what they need to be happy? Or are opposites doomed to fail?
