The Gingerbread Cafe - Jean Oram - Bog

A secret identity Christmas romance between a former NHL star and the owner of the league's newest team. But can you truly fall in love with someone who's keeping their identity a secret? A charming, sweet romance with characters so real they'll feel like long-lost friends.

Miranda's family thinks she's crazy. Not only did she just buy a hockey team-which made her a tiny bit famous-but she also moved into a small house out in the country. And, to their chagrin, she's still single.
(Not like she could ever find a man to understand her.)

Unless maybe she shed her true identity and pretended to be an average, curvy gal.

It seems to be working because she just met Dak-a down-to-earth coffee shop owner who understands her without explanation. And not only is he handsome, he makes her laugh.

Dak understands Miranda. Of course he does-he's former NHL...

And little does she know, her team is currently trying to recruit him to work with her rookies.

Which means that at some point he's going to have to burst their happy, romantic bubble and tell her exactly who he is...
