"Mila Hart left her harbor town at eighteen and swore she'd never set foot in her family's bakery again. Fifteen years, one estranged father's death, and one impossible will later, she's back — co-owner of the building she grew up fighting over, with the one person she never forgave. Jace Monroe never left. Never stopped baking. Never quite let go of the rivalry that defined both their childhoods. Now the will says they share everything — the kitchen, the till, the storefront — for one full summer season, before either of them can finally sell and walk away for good. Problem is, the closer they get, flour-dusted and sleep-deprived through the busiest season of the year, the harder it gets to remember why they were ever enemies in the first place."
