Hidden Bonds

Sawyer: This year has been hell. I lost my mother. My bakery is failing. I'm barely holding myself together. My friends refuse to let me drown. They push me to get help to save the bakery. That's when Aiden walks in looking for a job. He's quiet, closed off, and moody in a way that makes him impossible to read. But somehow with him around things start to change. The bakery begins to feel alive again. I begin to remember why I loved baking. For the first time in a long time, I feel something. I'm just looking for a feeling, and that's what I’ve found in him. But there's more to Aiden than the cold mask he shows the world. Underneath all the ice in bite is a sad man who craves the same things I do. Or maybe that's what I want to see. My friends try to warn me. I can't deny there's danger. I just don't know if it's the good kind, or the kind of danger that will set my life on fire.

Aiden: My life has always been about following orders. First from the men my mother brought into my life. Then from the man who holds my sister's life in his hands. When my mother died she left behind two things. Me, and my little sister. She's the only thing that matters. One more job. That's all I need to do before we're free. I take a job at a struggling bakery to keep my head down and finish what I started. The owner is stressed out, chaotic . . . and ridiculously handsome. But none of that matters. There's too much on the line for me to get distracted. This was supposed to be simple. Then the lies start unraveling. Secrets come to light. Betrayal cuts deeper than expected. Add in Sawyer's chaotic friends, a notorious mob family, and . . . a giant mountain man in a pink crop top, everything I worked for begins to implode. Now everything is falling apart.

Contains mature themes.
