His life took an unexpected turn that brought him to her village. She has a successful bakery/coffee shop that was her dead best friend's dream. A contentious meeting has her trying to fight her attraction to him. He wants to charm her to his side of things. Can they change each the other's mind or will a not-so-secret affair change their lives forever? Griffin wants to change Hamilton into a resort town, but Melody doesn't want the town to change. When she finds out who he is, she kicks him out of her shop. He's completely captivated on first seeing Melody and hearing her cursing. A heated exchange at a town council meeting has the people of Hamilton wondering what's really going on between them... Griffin stops by the cafe to make an appointment for a meeting to talk about the changes he has in mind. He ends up helping her with her baking, and they both cannot deny the attraction between them. Griffin finds he can open up to Melody in a way he's never been able to do with anyone and knows that Melody is special to him... But when Griffin is called away, Melody is devastated and is worried he won't come back to Hamilton. Will they be able to find a way to be together? Donna Kauffman's Hamilton Christmas Novellas series is brought to a close with the story of the unknown relative who wants to change his family's town in NAUGHTY BUT NICE. Only to be blindsided by the attraction and love for the bakery owner who is happy with her shop as it is. The instant attraction is what brings them together but the love for each other keeps them together. A story of the love of home, and family shows that you can have both with some compromise and laughter even when in the beginning your strangers.
