THE BAKERY ON CEDAR RIDGE: A Clean & Wholesome Small-Town Second Chance Romance
Anna Hart
In Cedar Ridge, Wendy Gibbs starts over at fifty four, running a small town bakery in a clean, closed door romance novella that keeps things sweet.
The ovens are on, the bills are late, and the grand reopening weekend is ten days away. If Wendy cannot pass the health inspection and fill the first big catering order, she will lose the lease and her fresh start with it.
Paul Simpson is fifty eight, steady with his hands and quiet with his words. He is also the only contractor in town who can fit Wendy in before the deadline. He agrees to help, but only if Wendy stops trying to fix everything alone.
That means Paul is at the bakery every day. Early mornings. Flour dust. Broken hinges. A temperamental mixer that refuses to behave. Wendy and Paul keep bumping into each other in the tight back room, sharing quick smiles and small favors that start to feel like something more.
If the bakery makes it, Wendy gets to stay. If it fails, she has to leave Cedar Ridge again.
Paul does not want her to go.
A sweet, clean, closed door small-town second chance romance with a clear happily ever after.
