The Maple Sugar Mistake (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781997949053)

The Maple Sugar Mistake

Jackie Caldwell has officially sworn off men, marriage, and anything that requires a security deposit. So naturally, she inherits a ramshackle Vermont bakery that's one health inspection away from being condemned-and comes face-to-face with the grumpiest, most annoyingly attractive mayor in New England history.

Gideon Beckman doesn't trust city girls with big dreams and bigger disasters. He especially doesn't trust the one currently arguing with her sourdough starter while standing in a kitchen that violates approximately seventeen safety codes. But when Jackie volunteers to single-handedly cater the town's most important festival, he can't decide if she's brave, insane, or both.

What follows is:

• Enemies-to-lovers banter that could power the entire electrical grid

• Forced proximity (thanks to her complete inability to use power tools)

• A grumpy sunshine dynamic that's sweeter than maple syrup

• Small-town meddling from a matchmaking matriarch who sees all

• One hilariously disastrous contractor situation

• Enough sexual tension to fog up every window in Vermont

Jackie came to Millbrook Falls to start over. She didn't plan on falling for the man determined to shut her down. But sometimes the best recipes call for a little chaos, a lot of heat, and ingredients you never saw coming.

Get ready for laughs, swoons, and enough romantic comedy tropes to fill a bakery case in this enemies-to-lovers small-town romance that proves love is the only mistake worth making.
