Delight in the most delicious Christmas story of the season with this charming holiday romance, perfect for fans of Nancy Naigle, Rachel Hanna, and Debbie Macomber.
Nothing can stop Lucy Carter from chasing her dreams until her boyfriend drops the bomb and tells her he’s leaving her for someone else. Complicating things, she gets a phone call from her ailing grandmother, asking her to return to the small town of Star Creek to help out with her beloved bakery. In the name of family loyalty, Lucy is forced to leave her aspirations behind.
Putting her turmoil aside, she’s ready to help, but is she up for the task?
The bakery competes in the Christmas bake-off every year at the annual Christmas festival. Lucy doesn’t know a thing about crafting the perfect dessert, and the festival is in less than a month. She also might have learned a little faster if the bakery’s newest employee and expert baker, handsome Will Westerly, hadn’t been so tough to deal with.
As the bake-off quickly approaches, it becomes clear that broken hearts don’t heal as soon as they thought, and big decisions will have to be made once the last cupcakes are served.
Get ready for a magical Christmas journey that will have you tasting the sweetness of the sugar bowl and craving the warmth of peppermint cocoa. If you’re in the mood for a heartwarming, small-town romance, this is the perfect read for you!

First, I want to thank Lindsay DetWiler and Harpeth Road Press for providing me with this book so I may bring you this review.
Anyone with a sweet tooth will LOVE Lindsay Detwiler’s The Holiday Bake-Off!! It is full of yummy tasty sinfully goodies that will make your mouth water! However, not so good for me, who lost 28lbs since June and reached her weight loss goal of 120lbs! Now I am wanting a sinfully naughty treat! Needless to say this was a very sweet read lol.
Instantly, Lindsay had me laughing when Lucy’s Gram asked if she met a cute boy to write in her next romance novel yet! The comical thing about it is she was still dating her boyfriend Jed! I guess Gram didn’t care for him much lol.
My heart broke hearing that her Gram had a stroke and later seeing it in the way Lindsay described her physical attributes.
I loved hearing the story of how Grandma met Grandpa all those years ago.
For 30 years there has been a standing tradition in Star Creek of a Holiday Bake-Off that everyone who everyone loves to attend!! Luckily Lucy offered to fill in for Gram this year and help with the event!
My heart hurt how she lost her Mom at such a young age the way that she did.
I loved that Lucy dreamed of living in New York and becoming a writer and actually wrote some books.
The Holiday Bake-Off by Lindsay DetWiler is a very well written book that is a perfect book for this time of year.
