Christmas at Little Beach Street Bakery by Jenny Colgan

In this last book of the Beach Street trilogy, Polly is busy getting ready for the holidays, frantically baking for the Christmas rush at her bakery. When her best friend Kerensa confesses that she had a one night stand while on the outs with her husband, Reuben, it threatens to jeopardize Polly's own relationship with her boyfriend, Huckle. Kerensa is now pregnant and not sure if the father is Reuben, and Huckle is very uncomfortable with keeping Kerensa's secret. Polly is also confronted with possibly meeting the father she never knew, much to her mother's dismay.  As ever, in the small village of Mount Polbearne on the Cornish coast, the support and friendship of the community can usually help solve almost any problem--and, of course, having a puffin named Neil as a pet (as Polly does) can't hurt either.
