A sweet tooth. A sledgehammer. One dangerously delicious renovation. When Maya Winters hires Home Wreckers Construction to fix her crumbling bakery, she expects sawdust and invoices—not a six-foot, flannel-wrapped, muscle-bound grump like Mason Hughes. Maya’s got big dreams, a tight budget, and no time for distractions. Especially not the kind with dark eyes, a stubborn streak, and a smile she can’t stop thinking about. Fixing up the bakery should be a straightforward job, but Maya’s flour-dusted curves and fiery determination wreck Mason’s focus faster than a demo crew on double overtime. Every project turns into a battle of wills, stolen glances, and enough tension to light the kitchen on fire. He should stay away, but Maya’s more addictive and harder to resist than her pastries. She’s bossy. He’s broody. And the oven’s not the only thing running hot. Built to Last is a short, steamy, laugh-out-loud grumpy x sunshine romance packed with snark, spice, and one dangerously distracted contractor who’s in way over his head. When this flustered contractor and bossy baker crank up the heat, flour hits the fan. If you love cinnamon roll alphas, witty banter, and sticky-sweet steam, you’ll devour this spicy, feel-good romance built for readers who crave heart and heat. If you’re a hopeful romantic at heart and love steamy, short, small-town, swoony romances, then the blue collar Home Wreckers Construction crew is your special kind of catnip. Don your hardhats and prepare for a bedtime story that’ll give you all the warm, toasty feels. Guaranteed HEA with no cliffhangers.
