Crumbs and Complications - Paperback

When Della Noble took over her favorite childhood bookstore, everyone said she was too young to make it work. Everyone except the quiet baker next door, who became her closest friend and biggest supporter. Three years later, she's proven them all wrong... until the customers stop coming, the numbers stop adding up, and her dream starts slipping through her fingers. Her last shot? A marketing expert from out of town with plenty of confidence and far too much chemistry.

Carter Stanton is Westerhill's best baker and most eligible bachelor. Unfortunately for his potential suitors, Carter's heart is already taken. Somewhere between cupcakes and late-night conversations, he'd fallen head over heels for the bookstore owner next door. The problem? She has no idea. But when a smooth-talking outsider shows up and starts shaking things up, including Carter's carefully guarded heart, he's no longer sure staying silent is an option.

Grant McKay needs a win. Burned out from corporate life, he's betting on a fresh start, even if it means saving a failing bookstore in a town he can barely find on a map. What he doesn't count on is falling for its stubborn, beautiful owner... and the protective, unexpectedly magnetic baker who watches her like she's already his.
