Gigi Douglas has worked at Winter Wonderland for five years, moving up from a part time cashier to Head Baker. When she finds out that the park is struggling and the owner has hired a Park Engagement Consultant to determine if Winter Wonderland can be saved or if it should be shut down.

Worse still? Her beloved pseudo grandparents, who play Santa & Mrs. Claus at the park, have volunteered her to go with this consultant on a research trip to nearby attractions. Will forced proximity, holiday cheer, and a love for all things Christmas change how Gigi feels about this business-focused consultant?

Theodore Forrest grew up in Florida and is the best at what he does: breathe life back into failing amusement parks. While the resident Santa gives him a tour, he meets the adorable "park princess," Gigi, and is instantly smitten.

She's all candy canes and Christmas magic with everyone else, but can't seem to stand Theodore. Can he save the amusement park and win over the pretty princess?

This low stakes holiday romcom is perfect for theme park lovers and fans of Hallmark Christmas.

The first in a series of inter-connected standalone romances set at Winter Wonderland Amusement Park, following a close-knit group of friends as they each find their love story.
