The perfect new curl-up-with-pumpkin-spice-lattes, cozy-under-a-blanket read of 2025!
Blaire Reese—smart, single, and simply dreaming of becoming a professional pastry chef full-time— is blindsided by the news that her beloved Aunt Rachel has died unexpectedly and left her sole control of her business, the Sugar and Spice Pastry Cafe in Willow Grove. Returning to her hometown, she discovers her family business is in trouble, and—to make things worse—its most-beloved recipe is missing.
Her first love and former summer crush, Evan Hadley, has also returned to town recently. Having left a corporate career behind, he's now a farmer and business partner at his family's Heath Acre Farm, famous for its Hay Daze corn maze and haunted hayride. He's grown up and good looking, but only charming when he wants to be—in other words, when he's not tangling with someone over his own family business's success, the way he is with Blaire after she cancels a large order for organic pumpkins.
At first meeting, her sunshine fades under his grumpy storm clouds, until he accidentally learns that her beloved family recipe is missing. Unexpectedly, he offers to help her in order to save the cafe and her aunt's legacy. As they work together in secret, the ingredients for a very different recipe develop— one simmering with romance—only for an unexpected turn of events to melt their friendship into a sticky mess.
Can Blaire save the beloved cafe and find the lost recipe that means so much to her family and her customers? Can she save the last chance at love with the first boy she ever kissed?
Read the cozy new escape full of autumn feels, fall lattes, and pumpkins with sugar and spice, and everything else that's nice about this magical season. Perfect for fans of Gilmore Girls, grumpy/sunshine romances, and The Pumpkin Spice Café!
