Sarah Collier is your typical teenage girl, slightly overweight with a mouthful of braces. The child of two famous heart surgeons who rarely have time for their daughter, Sarah looks forward to spending her Christmas and summer breaks with her loving Grandma in Twilight, Texas. Of course, the hot and sexy boy-next-door Travis Walker makes her visits all the more special. With each year, she fantasizes about a future which she hopes will include marrying her one true love.

Just when her life seems to be heading in the right direction, Sarah discovers that her beloved heartthrob is on his way down the aisle with another girl. With her heart pounding, she dashes off to the church to profess her undying love to the man of her dreams. What she finds is a room full of people in utter dismay as this naive fifteen- year-old makes the biggest mistake of her life.

Fast-forward nine years. The once immature Sarah Collier is now making waves as the famous children's author, Sadie Cool. When a sick young fan makes a special request to have Sadie come visit her, Sarah winds up returning home to Twilight. Upon her arrival, she discovers the sick child is the daughter of her childhood crush, Travis Walker.

Travis Walker used to be the man about town. That was, until he became a husband and a father. Who knew that his darling baby girl would become very sick and that his blushing bride would skip out on him? Never would he have imagined that the woman who holds the key to his daughter's heart would be Sarah Collier, the freckly teenage girl who once professed her love for him. Will the tables now be turned? Will this woman end up being his dream come true after all these years?

THE FIRST LOVE COOKIE CLUB is a heartfelt, feel-good story by the accomplished romance writer Lori Wilde. Superbly written with a surprise twist at the end, Wilde bakes a delicious Christmas treat.

Book Summary

"On Christmas Eve, if you sleep with kismet cookies under your pillow and dream of your one true love, he will be your destiny."

The towns folk of Twilight, Texas, believe the legend, but not Sarah Collier—not since she was a pudgy teenager, running down the church aisle on Christmas Day in a jingle bell sweater and reindeer antlers, trying to stop Travis Walker from marrying someone else. She may be grown up, slimmed down, bestselling children's book author "Sadie Cool" now, but Sarah will never forget that day. And she'll never fall foolishly in love again!

But when a letter from a sick fan brings Sarah back to Twilight, she's shocked to discover that Travis is the little girl's father—unattached and hotter than ever. His movie-star smile still makes her melt, but Sarah knows that ship has sailed. Travis, however, might have different ideas.

And just because you don’t believe in fairy tales doesn't mean they won't come true...
