Waiting for Gilbert
(2024)(The first book in the Holidays in Hadley Springs series)
A novel by Tasha Hackett
“Full of laugh out loud humor. An adorable romance, and quirky but lovable characters that could walk off the page, Waiting for Gilbert is the perfect cozy read for anyone who loves love!” —Emily Barnett, author of Thread of Dreams
“Tasha Hackett proves she’s every bit as adept with contemporary romance as historical in this snowy sweet tale. With a lovably unique heroine and a steadfast, cello-playing hero, Waiting for Gilbert is grab-your-favorite-cozy-blanket perfection!” ��� Megan Schaulis, author of The Susa Chronicles
***
"I'm just a girl, standing in front of a phone, asking her landlord to come to dinner."Cute and fun Cordelia is history. From now on, I’m serious and focused CJ Thompson. No more snappy one-liners. No more dance-parties-for-one in restaurant booths. Anne-girl is out. Marilla Cuthbert is in. It’s time to grow up!
If only it were that easy. With less than two weeks until a massive work deadline, I signed a 12-month lease on a cottage sight-unseen because I couldn’t bear to stay in the city another day after my broken engagement. It’s all well and good until my landlord knocks on my door at two in the morning.
Who knew living next to a house-flipping, cello-playing, swooney-smiling, flesh-and-blood man named Gilbert would be so distracting?

“A fun, sweet, touching Christmas tale that I thoroughly enjoyed. It is going to be on my re-read shelf.” —Mary Connealy, award-winning author of more than 75 historical comedies with cowboys
“I adore this story. With genuine and honest characters that leap off the page, Waiting for Gilbert is small town romance with heart. Perfect for fans of rom-com and Christian romance.” —Tosca Lee, New York Times bestselling author and three-time International Book Award winner

I was laughing and cheering for the romance from the very first page, and wiping away tears by the last.
