A down-on-her-luck waitress inherits a bakery with the man who stole her dream job—and broke her heart.
Rowan escaped her indifferent family the second
she graduated high school, but when her loving aunt dies, she drops
everything to return for the funeral. All Rowan wants is to say her
goodbyes and get back to her life—until her aunt’s lawyer tells her that
she’s inherited Elli’s Bakery, the last straw that sent her running.
Even worse, her brand new business partner is Matt—the guy who stole
her dream job at Elli’s and crushed her heart. Is she really supposed to just forgive him and run Elli’s by his side?
For Matt, Elli’s has been a safe haven, a way to take care of his
heartsick mom and fatherless little brother. When the woman who took him in passes away, Matt has no idea what he’s going to do next. Until
Rowan returns to their small town and becomes his new business partner.
But after everything that went down between them, it’s clear that Rowan
resents him.
Digging up the past will only be painful, and Matt needs to keep the bakery in business. Can Matt convince Rowan to stick around long enough
to work things out between them?
