Publisher Description
A dessert baker finds sweet romance in a small Southern town in this “touching and satisfying" novel by the USA Today bestselling author (Kirkus Reviews).
Kit Bellamy was raised on pie. Mamie Sue's Peanut Pies, to be exact—the family company her scheming brother-in-law sold out from under her. Now Kit needs a new recipe for her life, and Georgia’s Sugarberry Island seems to have all the ingredients. In that sleepy Southern town, Kit finds a new job running the mail-order cupcake business Babycakes…and meets the tall, dark, and adorable lawyer Morgan Westlake.
Having just moved to the island to raise his goddaughter, Morgan is as mouthwatering as any of Kit's creations. There’s just one fly in the batter: Morgan hails from the very law firm that helped crush her dreams. Fortunately, Kit's new friends can assure her that Morgan is no typical Westlake--and that even lawyers, not to mention single dads, need romance. If Kit can just be persuaded to follow her appetite—her sweetest dreams just might come true.
Includes irresistible recipes!
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Warm friendships and deep conversations form the backbone of Kaufmann's third Cupcake Club romance. Kit Bellamy, who relocates to tiny Sugarberry Island to head up mail-order cupcakery Babycakes after her brother-in-law sells her family's peanut pie business, becomes the newest member of the gossipy club. Morgan Westlake has arrived in town with his five-year-old niece, Lilly, to help her get to know her grandmother. Young Lilly also connects with others in the tiny Sugarberry community, most charmingly including the tattooed clerk at Cakes by the Cup, Babycakes's parent company. Kit finds Morgan attractive, but his family link to the lawyers who helped destroy the business she loved makes her wary. The Cupcake Club members, inclined to romantic optimism after the events of Sugar Rush and Sweet Stuff, vehemently push Kit into pursuing Morgan despite her understandable reluctance to trust him or anyone; their nagging comes off as insensitive, even if it works out in the end, but series fans will probably forgive them.
