Sweet Deception

She needs a fake fiancé to save her bakery. He needs to clean up his image. Their sweet deal is about to get messy... Sunshine baker Ella Hayes is desperate. Her grandmother‘s beloved Sugar & Spice Bakery is failing, and the loan she needs hinges on proving "stability." Enter Liam Blackwood-Maple Creek‘s grumpy, gorgeous heir. His board demands he ditch his "reckless playboy" reputation. Solution? A six-month fake engagement. Rules: No feelings. No real kisses. Absolutely no falling in love. But forced proximity in a flour-dusted kitchen ignites sparks hotter than her oven. Between stolen touches over cinnamon rolls and a kiss that definitely breaks the rules, their sweet deception starts crumbling faster than a shortbread cookie. When their contract leaks, destroying Ella‘s reputation, Liam must choose: walk away... or risk everything for a love that‘s deliciously real. A heartwarming fake relationship romcom packed with small-town charm, sizzling chemistry, and baked goods that‘ll make you swoon! Perfect for fans of Jenny Colgan and Suzanne Nugent.
