Briarwood was supposed to be my escape?a charming, sleepy town where the scent of cinnamon rolls wafts through the streets and heartbreak can be buried under layers of buttercream. But when I unearthed my grandmother's old recipe book, I found more than just a forgotten chocolate éclair recipe. The past came alive, whispering secrets of love and mystery that were as bittersweet as the ingredients I bake with every day. Between running my bakery, The Sweet Spot, and piecing together the story behind my grandmother's secret love affair, I wasn't prepared for the whirlwind that was Adam Cole?best-selling author, quiet retreat-seeker, and walking temptation. He's charming, intriguing, and dangerously creative. Just when I think I'm ready to let my guard down, a chance encounter with the town's mysterious artist, Jake Hartman, stirs up a storm I didn't see coming. Now I'm caught between two men, both tugging at different corners of my heart, while my grandmother's love story urges me to embrace the sweet chaos that love?and life?can bring. With every new recipe and unexpected moment, I'm beginning to wonder: Can I bake my way to love, or am I destined to be left with the crumbs?
