A hockey player with a secret sweet tooth walks into the bakery of his dreams and finds more than he bargained for. Ivan "the judge" Alexeev meets the diminutive owner of Sweetly Southern and the 6'2" Russian athlete's tongue ties up and his heart locks down. A lot of cupcakes and extra workouts are in his future. When he finally gets the nerve to ask Akiko out, he finds that she comes with a daughter. He falls hard for the mother and her little girl. But they may never find their HEA if Akiko's ex has anything to say about it. All of this alpha male's protective instincts are ready for whatever it takes.
