Love At First Loaf

One inheritance. Sixty days. A possessed oven, a porch-eating moose, and the silent man next door who keeps leaving salmon on her steps.Pastry chef Gabby Diaz didn't even know she had a great-aunt in Alaska - and now she has a bakery, a cabin, and a 60-day residency clause she has to honor before she can sell. After her ex-husband and her best friend blew up everything she built in Austin, sixty days at the edge of the world sounds like a vacation.Until she lands at midnight in heels, no luggage, holding her French rolling pin like a weapon against a 900-pound moose chewing her porch.Jace Maddox has been quietly maintaining Edna's property for two years - a promise he made to his grandfather, a stoic Alaskan habit, a wall he's built between himself and the rest of the world. He doesn't expect a verbal disaster in a flour-dusted apron. He doesn't expect his dog to fall in love with her on sight. He absolutely doesn't expect to start leaving fish on her steps just to have an excuse to walk the four hundred yards between their cabins.Gabby came to Alaska to be alone. Jace came back to Alaska to disappear. The bakery, the moose, and a forty-year love story preserved in someone else's journal have other plans.Perfect for readers who love: grumpy/sunshine ¿ small-town romance ¿ he-falls-first ¿ forced proximity ¿ mountain men ¿ found family ¿ stress-baking as a love languageLove At First Loaf is Book 4 of the Ashwood Falls series - readable as a standalone, bingeable as a set.Read now and walk into Sugar & Flour.
