Can sweet and spicy make for a delicious pairing?

When barbecue food truck owner Holt Collins caters a wedding at the romantic wedding venue Falling Blossoms, he meets a woman who throws him for a loop. She may be gorgeous, but they clash immediately. He did however love the venue and makes an appointment to show it to his finance, only to receive a break-up text.

Devastated, Holt spends a few days trying to figure out what went wrong and what to do next. He decides to grab a bite at a local cafe, unaware that it is owned by Kayla Burton. After telling Kayla he’s no longer engaged, he later finds her kitchen in crisis and Kayla desperate for help, but unwilling to ask. He steps in and saves the day, but she hates giving up control of her kitchen, much less her heart. She’s attracted, but he’s just been jilted. Is this a rebound fling or fate working its magic?

Can a cupcake café owner find true love with Mr. Hot Holt Barbecue?

My Review  4 STARS

Although this book is part of a series, you can totally read it was a stand alone like i did.

Kayla looks after the local restaurant in Blossom Falls and Holt is best friends with one of her two friends fiancee.  Having met once before where they traded barbs with each other, however Holt has returned a few weeks from Drake and Sarina's wedding only to find that he has been dumped by his fiancee via text and it is Kayla that.  Kayla is the one who finds out first and is there when he needs her.

The romance is fairly sweet and only has light kissing, whoever the feelings run deep even though they both have to get over hurts by their exe's and it is Kayla's path that holds them back the most.

There are good supportive friends and family and Kayla and Holt are embraced by all and helped along when they have doubts, especially Kayla as she is the one holding her relationship back with Holt and her own self doubts from being in a bad relationship with another chef.

This book is a lovely read and was really good on a blustery autumn/fall day.
