About this book
When Ivy Weaver enters a prestigious cooking competition to finally prove she's more than just the town's beloved baker, she's thrilled—until her culinary school rival Holland McIntyre shows up as her biggest threat. But here's the twist: they end up forced to work together as teammates, and suddenly Ivy has to decide if she can risk her heart (and her dreams) on the one person who's already let her down before. Holland's determined to make his mark in the restaurant world, but working alongside Ivy makes him realize there might be something more important than winning—if only he can convince her to trust him again. This sweet rivals-to-teammates romance will have you rooting for second chances while secretly hoping these two finally get their act together!
