Publisher Description

Pour yourself a cup of hot chocolate and settle into this sweet and cozy winter romance by Katie Cicatelli-Kuc, author of the New York Times bestseller Pumpkin Spice & Everything Nice! This edition includes a special scratch and sniff cover to keep you in the holiday spirit all year long.

Emma Sherman left without saying goodbye -- and her best friend, Aiden, is furious. He knew Emma was thinking of leaving their quaint New England town of Briar Glen for boarding school in New York City. She had shown him her acceptance letter at Cup o' Jo, their go-to coffee shop, over a mug of their favorite peppermint hot chocolate ... before he got the chance to confess his true feelings for her.

Emma knows she shouldn't have left without saying goodbye, no matter how frosty things got between them. Especially now that Emma is back in town, and she's brought her new boyfriend, Sam, to visit for the holidays. Talk about icy conditions.

As things grow colder between them, Emma and Aiden must find a way to repair their friendship -- but this time, even a peppermint hot chocolate may not be enough to break the ice.
