Publisher Description
From #1 New York Times Bestselling Author Barbara Freethy comes a poignant, and charming romance about going home, falling in love and finding yourself.
Roman Prescott has always lived his life in the shadows. Being invisible meant staying alive—during his troubled childhood and his years as a soldier. But when an injury sends him back to the small town of Fairhope, he can't hide from his past or the light brought forth by a beautiful pastry chef.
Having lost her parents at a young age, Juliette Adams has had her share of tragedy, but now she fills her days making sweet desserts in her bakery and trying to recapture her happy childhood. Then she meets an attractive, brooding man, who is not only tearing down her old house but might just tear apart her fragile future. She's not interested in the tragic love story she was named after—she wants a love that will lift her up, that will last, and this sexy soldier has one foot out the door.
They both know they should ignore the sparks between them, but Valentine's Day fever has lit up the town and old love letters and long-buried secrets keep bringing them together. Can these two wary souls get past their fear of loving and losing to finally win the greatest love of all?
If so, what could be sweeter than that?
SWEET SOMETHINGS is a full-length standalone novel!

Another Winner
Roman and Juliette both have hurt souls, for different reasons…I was rooting for both from the first moment I met them! Juliette’s desire to find the truth about people and make them happy again, was heartwarming! Watching the wall’s of brooding Roman crumble as he gets to know Juliette is delightful! This is a wonderful and romantic read!
I LOVED this book!!
This was such a fantastic story. I'm a huge fan of Barbara Freethy, and this story did not disappoint. The characters were soooooo believable and so easy to connect with. I felt like they were friends of mine that I hang out with. I didn't want the story to end but couldn't wait to find out what happened next. Read it, I promise you will love it too. Thank you Ms. Freethy for another great escape.
Great novel!
Let me tell you how much I loved this book! "Sweet Somethings" is a story about Juliette, a second generation baker, and Roman, a sexy military man who is on medical leave. Their paths cross through an old house that Roman is remodeling and it just happens to be Juliette's childhood home. Their attraction to eachother is something everyone wishes they had in their own life. I absolutely loved their story. It is so cliche to say that I couldn't put it down, but I really COULDN'T!! It was just that good! Well done Barbara! I cannot wait to check out the companion movie!
