About this ebook

Calais Shepherd is content to run her coffee shop by day and rely on her own skills in the bedroom at night—until the owner of the new bakery down the street shows up in her office with samples. His desserts are divine, but his body is truly sinful.

Determined to put the past behind him and follow through on his dream, Kane Hardesty moves to a new town to open his cupcake shop. A little cross-promotion deal with the delectable latté-skinned barista seems like the perfect combination of business and pleasure, but her uncle’s merger suggestion sounds even better.

Unfortunately, the sparks between them aren’t the only fire in town. When Calais has to close her shop and move out of her smoke-damaged apartment, Kane offers her a partnership she can’t refuse. But a persistent arsonist and Kane’s past may put an end to their lucrative arrangement—and her.

I really enjoyed Kane and Calais story these two were really great together but with lots of drama surrounding them will they be able to make a go of it and their businesses. This was a really good interesting read it is the second book in the series but easily reads as a standalone.

I love stories where the couple’s chemistry happens right away and they realize their connection immediately and then it’s just their relationship developing from there. I absolutely loved it! The steamy scenes were absolutely scorching and it left all hot and bothered to quote Kane. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
