About this listen

Actress Carrie Murray’s films are a Christmas lover’s delight. Filled with twinkling lights, festive carols, and happy endings, they’re the perfect escape from reality - for her and the audience. Then Tinseltown calls. Braxton Timothy is Hollywood’s biggest action star. Handsome and talented but decidedly on the naughty list, no one can fathom his sudden desire to produce a feel-good Christmas movie - least of all, his no-name co-star.

Alternating between scenes reminiscent of everyone’s favorite made-for-TV movies and unexpected, off-screen chemistry, Gingerbread Falls has surprises in store this holiday season. The question is, will there be enough Christmas magic to convince two imperfect people that they’re perfect for each other? This “sweet as a Christmas cookie” romance (best-selling author Heidi Swain) includes an original recipe for Maple Glazed Gingerbread Scones.

This is a very original Christmas story with two plots running in tandem. You may think that baker Noelle and Doctor Carson are the main characters - and you'd be right... up to a point, since this is a story within a story and Noelle and Carson are fictitious characters in a Christmas movie.
Aren't all fictional characters fictitious, you may well ask? Sure, but here's the bit that makes this so original... Noelle and Carson's romance mirrors that of the actors playing them.
Actors?
Yes. Clever, eh?
Played by (the also fictitious, but not quite as much) Carrie and Braxton, Noelle and Carson's story is set by the script... and the Christmas holidays trope. But when Carrie and Braxton look as though they're falling in love off-screen, it becomes a case of life imitating art.
As for the setting, well, it couldn't be more perfect. It has all the makings of a Christmas movie and would not look out of place on the Hallmark channel. Having listened to the audiobook, I can visualise Gingerbread Falls already.
There's a bit more heat than you might find in your regular Christmas romance, and the story handles some interesting topics well (Note, none of these are graphic but they definitely give the characters a realistic backstory that is not all sugary sweet)
This was the perfect story to listen to in the run-up to Christmas.

A two-for-one story, perfect for Christmas
