Selena Miles has everything she ever worked a Michelin-starred career path, a sharp reputation in the culinary world as a rising star pastry chef, and a life in Manhattan that leaves no room for complications. Then her grandmother dies—leaving her a broken-down bakery in the home town she left 12 years ago. Fixing it up was never part of the plan. Neither was running into Luke Stone again—the man she once loved and never really got over. He’s older now. A little rougher. A single dad with a steady life and a daughter he adores. And when Selena asks for his help restoring the bakery, he says yes—just like he always used to. Working side by side, the spark between them reignites fast. But Selena isn’t here to stay… and Luke isn’t a man built for temporary. She walked away once. Can she really do it again? A slow-burn, second chance romance filled with small-town heat, emotional depth, and a love that just won’t quit. Part of the 'Hot Dad Summer' Series, but can be read as a standalone book.
