Ava Bennett came to Forge Creek for a fresh start … not a daily delivery of muddy footprints.

After a painful divorce, she pours her savings, pride, and every waking hour into Sweet Treats Bakery. Making it succeed is more than a dream. It is proof that she can build a happy life entirely on her own.
Then Jake Dalton becomes her first customer every morning.
The broad-shouldered contractor is quiet, maddeningly observant, and far too comfortable pointing out everything in her historic bakery that needs fixing. He tracks dirt across her clean floors, eats enough muffins to qualify as a business expense, and keeps helping whether Ava wants him to or not.
Jake knows how to restore almost anything. Old buildings. Broken pipes. Crooked shelves. Winning over one stubborn, flour-covered bakery owner may be his toughest project yet.
When a huge opportunity puts Sweet Treats in front of half the town, Ava reluctantly accepts Jake’s help. Between caramel apple muffins, a ridiculous pink apron, and one very inconvenient mishap inside the walk-in cooler, irritation turns into laughter. And laughter turns into kisses neither of them can blame on the cold.
But Jake believes love means seeing a problem and fixing it. Ava has already survived one man who mistook taking control for taking care of her.
To build something lasting, Jake must learn to listen before he reaches for his tools. And Ava must decide whether accepting help means surrendering her independence or finally trusting the right man to stand beside her.
