Tessa Montgomery is stuck. Her family owned Boulangerie is floundering, her fiancé cheated on her, and the town residents tend to look at her with pity, and her big dreams of running her own bakery are rapidly fading away.
Enter Leo Castorini, an old rival who has returned home to help with his father’s restaurant, which is also floundering. Leo and Tessa trade barbs for a while, but both confide in the other about the struggles of getting their parents to make changes that will save their business. The pair put their heads together and come up an unconventional plan. It’s an 'all business' arrangement between Tessa and Leo…
Until it isn’t…
This is an adorable contemporary romance! It’s a relatable story about waking up one day and realizing your life is in a rut and having the courage to shake things up before it's too late.
The ‘Sweetheart Deal’ Tessa makes with Leo has unexpected dividends for them both, which was fun to watch. Both characters grow as individuals, but Tessa has a real moment of clarity that was impressive, and I loved seeing her embark on the dreams she had postponed from so long.
Overall, this is a charming ‘enemies to lovers’ story. It is light and clean, with great characters, humor, and a wonderful, heartwarming conclusion- Just the kind of story I love!...more
