The Nicest Gangster

Joshua Hansen doesn't believe in anything, except maybe the romance novels he reads about gorgeous men falling deeply in love. So when his small town's interfaith council approaches him to ask if they can hold a weeks-long bake sale outside his convenience store for a fundraiser, Joshua isn't sure what to say. Feeling his apprehension, the council offers him a bribe: they'll bring him free baked goods, and pray in a wide variety of ways to get him a guy like the one on the covers of his books.

Although Joshua isn't one to believe in miracles, and has no interest in carbs, he does want to help those in need in his town, so he accepts their offer. Still, he's not holding his breath for them finding his Mr. Right in this small Virginia town. After all, he's spent years looking for the right guy. What are the chances the council can find him a man in less than a month?

On a snowy Christmas Eve, when he has just about given up all hope, Joshua might need to eat his words, and some rather amazing pasta. When Giorgio Vincenni storms into the store, Joshua wonders if maybe the council's prayers have been heard. Abrasive, well-dressed, and full of attitude, Giorgio looks just like one of those gorgeous mafia men on the cover of the books he loves. Joshua soon finds himself in a confrontation with Giorgio that holds so much sexual tension, they find it leads to something else. Now looking closely at Giorgio, Joshua must ask himself, is this really the type of guy he wants?
