One freshly baked homecoming disaster… Redberry, New York, may have all the cozy vibes of a Hallmark card, but not for Harper Gibson. The first chance she got to escape, she bolted. But when Harper’s mother jets off on an impromptu trip to Europe, leaving Harper’s grandmother’s decades-old home bakery in production limbo, she’s forced to trade power suits and stilettos for an apron and a rolling pin, facing all that she’s left behind. What’s worse? Rhye McKellan, her former boy-next-door now live-in bakery temp, has promised to help whip the bakery back into shape, but his dry humor and slow smiles are making it hard to remember why she skipped town in the first place. … could be the makings of a happily ever after. Rhye would’ve never known what a loving family was like if it weren’t for the Gibsons. Now, as Redberry’s newest firefighter and part-time sourdough artisan, he’s determined to lay down roots of his own. The only missing ingredient is Harper. She hates it here, and for very good reasons. But Rhye’s no longer the cowardly kid who let her walk away without a fight. Despite being haunted by ghosts from his past, he wants a shot at forever with Harper. If only he could convince her that everything she truly needs is at home in Redberry. With him.
