From USA Today and Wall Street Journal best-selling author of Nantucket White Christmas and Christmas at the Restaurant. Jingle Bell Jam is a feel good holiday romance.

Meet Bryan Baker, a builder/architect with a big heart and a fondness for sweets - something he's been indulging more since a recent breakup. 

When he throws his back out lifting holiday turkeys, his doctor brother reads him the riot act and prescribes a fitness program.

So he joins a local gym and meets Melanie, a friendly and very pretty personal trainer. He's immediately smitten, but is sure she's way out of his league. 

But he might be wrong about that. Melanie wants to get to know him better. But his ex, Amy is a new member of the gym, and she doesn't hesitate to point out that it's against the rules for staff to date clients. 

Bryan has a similar policy about not dating clients - so when Melanie hires him to design her a house, the situation seems impossible.

But then there's Jaclyn, Bryan's other client, an eccentric older woman who talks to invisible fairies and likes to play match-maker.

Listen to Jingle-Bell Jam and discover this feel good, quirky small town, where everyone knows everyone else and these characters will quickly become your friends.

Be sure to check out the two recipes I've included. Both feature raspberry jam, and I make one of them almost every day.
