The Wintergreen Village Series

The Kristmas Project

Kristmas Noel Holly was born in December—but her name is where the holiday spirit ends.
Raised by parents who despised the season, Kris associates Christmas with stress, not joy. So when she’s invited to speak at a prestigious conference in Germany during the first week of December, she sees it as the perfect escape from garlands, carols, and forced cheer.

Nicholas Joseph Holladay lives for the holidays.
He treasures every twinkling light, every Hallmark movie, and every moment spent with his six-year-old daughter. When Kris insists the conference is a must business opportunity, Nick agrees to join her—bringing his daughter and niece along so he won’t miss a single magical moment with them.

Nick’s mission? To show Kris the wonder she’s been missing. From snow-dusted cobblestone streets to the enchanting stalls of Germany’s Christmas markets, he hopes to thaw her frosty view of the season—and maybe her guarded heart.

But as sparks fly and traditions clash, will Nick’s holiday charm win Kris over—or will their differences ruin more than just the trip

The Holiday Cooking Club

Pre-Order now! Release date Oct. 14, 2025
Stefani Halladay has spent her life chasing culinary greatness. With her cozy bistro finally gaining traction and the James Beard Award within reach, she’s on the brink of everything she’s ever wanted—until Grayson Moore walks back into her life.

Grayson, now a Michelin-starred chef, was once Stefani’s closest rival and almost something more. But when he earned a JBA nomination with a dish eerily similar to hers, she felt betrayed—and shut him out completely.

Years later, Grayson is catering a wedding in the charming town of Wintergreen Village when he’s stunned to see Stefani among the bridesmaids. Determined to understand why she cut him off, he seizes the chance to reconnect. When a water main breaks at his Chicago restaurant, it unexpectedly gives him time off—their simmering past begins to boil over.

As the truth comes to light and holiday magic fills the air, Stefani must decide if she’s ready to rewrite the recipe for her future—with Grayson by her side.
