Ratings and reviews

Oh Jiffy Kate! Where have you been all my reading life!! This story, based in the world of Green Valley is spectacular! This Donner Bakery story is everything a romantic comedy should be! Full of heart, heat and oh the laughter is right up my alley! I floved it! This is the story of Tempest and Cage. Tempest is the proverbial "Tempest in a teacup" she may be small but she is mighty. When the unthinkable happens to her. Well let's just say that hell hath no fury like a woman scorned and she ultimately pays the price. (But I was rejoicing the whole way!) She is struggling to find herself again and when she starts a friendship with Cage, well she finds who she really is. Cage, oh my me this lovable Viking! He is everything that is good and swoony in a hero! He is a retired cage fighter with a heart of gold and a body for sin. He strives to be everything that Tempest needs and more. I cheered hard for them, I laughed with them and even got a little misty for them! You get all the feels in this book! I will definitely be going back and adding some of their previous stories to my TBR list! Well done ladies, so well done!

I giggle-snorted, smirked, and laughed aloud while reading this wittily penned tale. I am new to the dynamic duo of Jiffy Kate, silly me, where I have been? Their writing style was seamless, cleverly amusing, comically descriptive, keenly observant, and sharply honed to conjure sharp visuals that had me bouncing in my chair with gleeful delight. Tempest, the Donner Bakery’s Duchess of Muffins, has gone off the rails, she seemed to have lost control of her temper after catching her husband in bed with her high school nemesis; I would imagine that certainly would do it for me too. Her vindictive acts of retribution were landing her in jail, racking up $$ in fines, and landed her in anger management. Her ex seemed to have ended up with all the friends but luckily for her, Tempest was befriended by a gorgeously handsome and well-sculpted new resident. Cage was a retired UFC fighter turned strip club bouncer – and he soon had her back, much to Tempest’s pious Bible banging mother’s horror. Having been raised in a small, inbred town in the South, as well as surviving a ridiculously and stridently religious mother myself, I totally identified with the narrow-minded and petty small community complications and issues Tempest was floundering with. While I empathized with her plight, I frequently wanted to give her a few good kicks to dislodge her cranium from her colon. I was besotted and enamored with the sexy Cage; he was not at all what I would have expected from an MMA fighter, as he was highly intelligent, insightful, tenderhearted, patient, and my new BBF. Of course, being that he was perfect, he was like a unicorn and the type of man that could only exist on my Kindle.

Tempest Cassidy is having a few bad months since she walked in on her husband and his girlfriend in her bed; she's been arrested a few times in incidents based on that discovery. Sadly, one of the few ...
