Love wasn’t the daily special when a grumpy small-town baker delivers a baby in his bakery. Now, all he can think about is that sweet bundle and her tempting single mother.
Having a baby in a bakery gives new meaning to taking the bun out of the oven.
I’d been in Curmudgeon Bakery for one of those lemon baby-Bundt cakes I’d been craving since I found out I was pregnant.
The draw had nothing to do with the baker himself. Tall, tatted, and edgy, looking more like a biker than a man who makes baked goods. I hardly knew him other than taking a tumble in a rainstorm in front of his shop . . . and then tossing myself at him after he rescued me.
We shared a moment but it’s not what you’d think.
Months later, he delivered my baby among his cookies and cakes. Talk about a second chance encounter.
Then he whips up a plan to pretend to be my baby’s father, and everything heats up from there.
My body.
My heart.
My willingness to accept a perfect stranger’s kindness despite him telling me over and over he isn’t who I think he is.
I beg to differ.
He’s that sugary drizzle on a citrus-flavored, guilty pleasure that’s bad for the hips, but together—him, and me, and baby—we’re the perfect blend of ingredients that might do all our hearts some good.

What a great start to a new series. I love the small town feel of Sterling Falls and the big over involved Sylver family to keep life interesting. A fabulous slow burn romance with so much character growth along the way. Everyone deserves to be loved regardless of the past mistakes.
Enya has made some life changing decisions that has cost her most of her family. Not that they were ever super close. Her only real family connection is her sister who is famous and super busy. Moving to a new small town and taking on single motherhood is certainly doable, right?
Sebastian has a past nobody likes to talk about but never lets him forget either. His time was served and he return to his home town, building a solid repsectable business, keeping his nose clean. Loving his family and always wanting to be there to help where he can. Feeling he needs to make up for lost time.
Enya stumbling into the bakery was the last thing Sebastian was looking for. But for some reason this beautiful woman has drawn him in, making him wish for things he is certain he doesn't deserve. Can Enya convince his he deserves every bit of it? Will Sebastian open his heart truly?
Excited for what is to come in this new series.
