Making Christmas — Nancy Fraser

A 1980s Vintage Romance It's been five years since William Barrett returned to Dickens to take over as CEO of Wil-Bar Toys. He's spent these past years helping build Wil-Bar into a leader in creative, handmade toys. His work ethic and drive has left him little time for a personal life. Or, perhaps he's still pining for the one who got away. Catherine Gates moved away from Dickens six years earlier. Now a staff reporter for a woman's magazine, she's returning to Dickens to do a story on Wil-Bar Toys new production methods and get the scoop on their upcoming holiday line. When Will and Cat meet up again for the first time in years, it's as if they've never been apart. Rekindling their friendship, and attraction, becomes more important than Cat's article, or even the secrecy of the new toy lines. Can these two childhood friends make up for lost time and pursue the romance they missed out on years earlier? Or, will Cat's story expose too much and put them at odds with one another?
