Always the Baker

Billie Hopkins is discontent living life for her mother. The painter and baker spends her days working at her family’s business. Even though she wishes she could change her life, she doesn’t have the motivation to do so … until her boyfriend of three years breaks up with her and gets engaged just six months later. Worse, his fiancée wants to hire Billie to bake their wedding cake. That seems to be the final straw that breaks the camel’s back and forces Billie to do something different with her life—even if it’s just for three days.

Brax Adams is discontent with the fake energy and superficial lifestyle that plagues him as a singer and songwriter. When his ex spreads lies and starts rumors about being pregnant with his child, Brax decides to take a break and go to one of his favorite cities to unwind—Rose Valley Hills. While he yearns for something, someone real, he isn’t actively looking … but a shaking woman at the bar grabs his attention and makes him feel things he’s never felt before.

For Billie, her weekend in Rose Valley Hills is supposed to be a time of freedom, adventure, and a chance to create a new identity. Convinced she will always be the baker and never the bride, the last thing Billie expects is to meet her favorite singer and fall deeper in love with him. As perfect as things feel, the truth about Billie’s little white lie is bound to come out. Will their blossoming bond withstand the news, or will she be yet another woman to disappoint him?
