Christmas with the Headmaster

**Pre-Order for Delivery on 05 Nov 2026**

She stopped believing in fairytale endings long ago…

Gertrude was older, and wiser now, having raised a son and lost a husband. Besides, she was too busy running the town bakery to worry about men and all the complications they brought. Especially the one who left her pregnant and unmarried twenty years ago.

He was a confirmed bachelor..…

Archie fell in love once, but that was when he had dreams of marrying a girl from his town. After all, the girl he'd given his heart to tossed it aside and married another as soon as he left to realize his dream.

Now he’s been offered a position as headmaster in the town he grew up in. With Christmas around the corner, he is forced to face his past and the woman who broke his heart. Will he get the greatest Christmas gift ever or will he find a lump of coal in his stocking?
