Half-Baked Lies: A Steamy Cheating Husband Revenge Romance

Marlowe Voss built her bakery out of flour, sugar, and stubborn will. She built her marriage on trust. Only one of those turned out to be real. Six years in, Marlowe is still pulling 4 a.m. shifts to make her bakery the best in the city - certain Derek is behind her every step. Then she finds a wire transfer she never approved: six figures, drained straight from the fund for her second location. Derek didn't just cheat. He financed it with her own money. And the storefront it bought? It belongs to Priya Shah - the chef who beat Marlowe on national TV eight years ago and never once let it go. Marlowe doesn't have time to fall apart. She calls Nathan Reyes instead. >While Derek and Priya rush to open their storefront before anyone starts asking questions, Marlowe is already building something bigger - in plain sight of everyone who counted her out. The late nights in Nathan's kitchen start as strategy. They don't stay that way. >But the closer Marlowe gets to Nathan, the harder one question is to shake. >But why is Nathan really doing all of this?
