When brilliant, logical Owen Miller walks into my bakery and witnesses the worst break-up in the history of public, mortifying break-ups, I can only think of one thing to do… so I kiss him.

Is it a mistake? Yes.
Do I regret it? Maybe.

Friends aren’t supposed to kiss—or have red-hot moments next to the bread oven. And respected bakers with designs on a San Francisco bread empire aren’t supposed to manhandle their customers.

It’s a rebound, pure and simple. We both admit it. I don’t have time for anything more, especially when I’m on the cusp of achieving my dream—expanding my business into hand-picked, perfect locations.

But Owen is a savvy hotel owner who knows a thing or two about business. So when location scouting leads to wine tasting, long leisurely drives, and a hands-on meeting in a wine cave, I decide mixing business and pleasure with the smoking-hot charmer might be the best of both worlds.

Until an anonymous competitor seems determined to sink everything I’ve put my heart and soul into. Maybe it’s time to end our friends with benefits arrangement before I lose everything.

But what if losing Owen is losing everything? What if I’m falling for my rebound guy?

This was a sweet slow-burn friend to lover romance that I couldn’t get enough of.
Isla is trying to get the nerve up to tell her boyfriend that she’s leaving him. Every time that she has wanted to do it in the past she didn’t want to because she didn’t want to have to deal with it. Then there happens to be a golden opportunity when she finds out that he is cheating on her and uses that to get out of her relationship.
Owen has been going to Isla’s bakery for quite some time now and because he has feelings for her and his love for sourdough bread. I thought that it was sweet that when she breaks up with her boyfriend and then he goes to her bakery and asks if she is ok.
Who knew that a kiss could change everything.
