Muffins, Maps & Minor Disasters: A Romantic Comedy (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798257057410)

A trail reroute accidentally sends hikers straight to Dalton's most earnest baker, and suddenly Christian Crumb's peaceful pre-dawn routine is over before the muffins are even out of the oven.

The problem is Lyle Waltham.

Or more specifically: Lyle's map update.

As a GIS cartographer and mapping consultant, Lyle is brilliant with systems, terrible with unexpected crowds, and even worse with apologizing in person. Unfortunately, his latest trail correction goes live too early and starts redirecting hikers to exactly the wrong place-Christian's bakery parking lot.

Now Christian has a shop full of confused strangers, a town full of opinions, and one anxious mapmaker who keeps showing up with printed corrections, increasingly better explanations, and a face that gets harder to ignore every time he walks through the door.

Christian is used to being underestimated as "just the muffin guy." Lyle is used to being more comfortable in text than in real life. But somewhere between community forums, trail inspections, social-media chaos, emotionally significant landmarks, and the kind of text-message chemistry that feels suspiciously unfair, what starts as a logistical disaster becomes something neither man quite knows how to navigate.

In Dalton, wrong turns have a way of leading to exactly the right person.

Muffins, Maps & Minor Disasters is a cozy, funny M/M small-town romance featuring a warmhearted baker, a dryly funny mapmaker, accidental trail chaos, town meddling, breakfast-based emotional support, and a happily ever after.
