Interesting Concept
I finally figured out the concept behind these stories. I like the idea of a bakery, a couple of older woman experiencing a life change, still interested in having romantic relationships. But what is intriguing me is that these books are a series of short stories with a cliffhanger at the end of each and so you are drawn to the next short story. Kind of like a TV series where one episode follows after another. I like a short story that can be read in one or two settings, so these are great and also interesting. It is a fun concept!

Sorry. I don't mind suspending belief a bit when reading a novel.
However, a sudden, complete reversal of personality and actions of a character does not work for me. Even if the plan is to change a "good" guy to a "bad" one, a gradual transition would be much more believable.

The bakery is coming along nicely and the women have made a few new friends in this book. Again, my only wish is that the book wasn't broken down into six installments. I look forward to seeing what happens with the mess that was left for them on the grand opening.

Great Read!
I really enjoyed book 3 in this series, Julia and Chloe just seem to be having every obstacle thrown in their way trying to get their bakery opened. I'm looking forward to reading book 4 in this series and will definitely recommend this book to everyone.

Umm, Scott? Gives me the ick the more I learn about him. Hoping Julia doesn’t give in and let him have another chance because there’s something off about him!
But Bruce and Daniel!? Swoon - I hope they’re innocent.

This is a very good short series. It is a change up from the long 300+ pages in other series I am reading.

Good series
I do think this series could have been 1 book, written as a stand alone instead of six books short

ends abruptly
Although this is part of a series the story ends abruptly without really telling the story. It just leaves you hanging.
