Synopsis: Five years ago the staff of Pickwicks Cafe in Richmond were thrown into turmoil when their cook and part-owner, Scott, had a terrible accident. With help from his friends, his wife Peggy, and the staff at the local hospital, he made an amazing recovery. Now Pickwicks is preparing to host a special Christmas fundraiser for the hospital department that looked after Scott. Pickwicks' waitress Megan has been liaising with the ward's administrator, Nick, as all the staff who helped Scott's recovery are invited are invited. As the problems of organising the fundraiser take up more and more of their busy lives, Megan and Nick contact each other more frequently, and their emails and phone calls start to develop from the practical into the flirty. But can you actually fall for someone you've never met? As the fundraiser draws closer, Megan is beginning to think that she had imagined all the virtual flirting between herself and Nick - he promised to arrange to meet her for real, but he hasn't done so. Now he's bringing someone with him to the fundraiser, and they're just bound to be everything Megan feels she isn't ... Another Cup of Christmas is a festive sequel (of sorts!) to Jenny Kane's fantastic debut romance, Another Cup of Coffee.
