How to Bake the Perfect Christmas Cake
(Home for the Holidays - Book 2)
by Gina Henning
Don't
miss the brilliant second book in the 'Home for the Holidays' series from Gina
Henning.
A
DELICIOUS CAKE. A GUY WHO IS LATE. MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL.
After
the best Thanksgiving of her life, Lauren Hauser can't wait to see
Jack-the-pecan-hoarder so they can finally be in the same place at the same
time. Long distance really doesn't work when you're head over heels!
But
when Jack doesn't turn up at the airport Lauren is left wondering if their
relationship is really as great as she thought? Sure Jack's kisses were
delicious and when he looked at her, her knees felt weak, but what did they
really know about each other?
A
big Hauser family Christmas is just what is needed for this situation. Not only
will her mom be decking the halls with boughs of monstrous-Christmas-decorations,
but Lauren is baking a Christmas cake to once again claim dessert queen of the
family! Will Jack fit in with the Hauser clan? Or will Lauren have to face the
music...and accept that not every holiday romance was made for a happily ever
after...

How
to Bake the Perfect Christmas Cake is such a heartwarming
story that was a delight to read! I fell
in love with Lauren and Jack in How to
Bake the Perfect Pecan Pie and was really excited to continue their story
with them that is set around Christmas time.
As Lauren and Jack continue their new relationship, they have several
challenges ahead of them – but love will always find a way as they say!
The whole Hauser family is so much fun with
their quirky traditions and the reader can’t help but giggle at some of the antics
that happen during the story.
Jack’s Twelve Days of Christmas gifts were
charming and very creative. All men
should take note of this as I believe it would score major points with the women
in their lives!
Aunt Minnie really stole my heart and with her
newly acquired cat, George, made me giggle throughout the story.
There were a few editing errors and at times I
felt the author was trying to meet a certain word count because of unnecessary
descriptions, but overall these issues did not take from the adorable story.
How
to Bake the Perfect Christmas Cake is the perfect
book to get you in the holiday spirit and one that I would highly recommend to
anyone looking to read an adorable holiday romance.

Henning currently resides where bluebonnets line the highways in the spring,
but she prefers the rock flower anemone from under the sea. Above the ocean’s
surface Gina likes to dance with her three boys and travel to exotic places
like the grocery store with her husband. Her pooch Schatzi is a mix between
German Shepherd and possibly pig. One of Gina’s favorite pastimes is running.
She recently completed her one-and-done marathon. At the end of the day her
glass of wine is always half-full.
