Once Upon a Sugar Plum: A Sweet Nutcracker-Inspired Christmas Rom-Com (Once Upon a Time in Colorado Book 1)

Description

Sometimes the sweetest love stories aren’t choreographed—they’re discovered.

When my fiancé leaves me on our wedding day, going home is the last thing I want—until it becomes the only place left to start over.

Storybook Ridge is supposed to be a temporary reset . . . except I walk straight back into the arms of Colton Atwood. My best friend. My almost. The boy I never kissed—and the man I never stopped comparing everyone else to.

Now he’s restoring the Sugar Plum Inn, a place practically stitched together with Christmas magic. And when the walls start humming with familiar music, and the lights flicker like they’re trying to tell me something, I can’t ignore the truth: This town—and this man—still feel like home.

Then Colton secretly signs us up as partners for the Christmas Tour of Homes, and suddenly we’re tangled in twinkle lights, late-night projects, and feelings I promised myself I’d never revisit.

I’m afraid of choosing wrong. He’s afraid I’ll run again. But the magic of the Sugar Plum Inn has other plans . . . and so does my heart.

This book was previously published as Love at the Sugar Plum Inn, but has been altered and expanded.

Once Upon a Sugar Plum is a cozy, closed-door, (light) magical-realism Christmas romance featuring best friends to lovers, second chances, small-town charm, holiday magic, he falls first, she’s scared to, home renovation bonding, one couch, and a Nutcracker-themed enchantment that brings them back together.
