predictable…
Just finished this 2nd book in the series even though I hadn’t cared too much for the first. These books are shockingly short, about the length of 3 chapters in an average book. These books fact that the author didn’t even bother to come up with individual titles for the books in a series should tell you something.
The plot is 2 old friends, one just divorced and the other widowed. Decide to start a bakery together. Every encounter they have sets “butterflies off in their stomachs”.
Maybe a teenager wrote these. Very disappointing. Luckily they are free to read on the Kindle Unlimited app. I’d feel cheated if I’d spent a dollar on this.

I enjoyed book 2 in this series watching Julia and Chloe navigate the various roadblocks they are encountering while trying to get their new bakery opened up. I'm looking forward to reading book 3 in this series and will definitely recommend this book to everyone.

Strange Happenings
And the drama continues. Now Julia's credit card has been hacked. Strange things are happening in this small town, before the bakery can even open. This is a true page turner.

I'm loving this series. My only wish is that the author just released it as a full length novel to make it seamless reading. Just my opinion...

I like the fact that these books are short 80-85 pages. Most books I read are 380-480 pages. Great story line.

This is such a cute book. It is not normal to follow older characters in their 50s while being single and finding themselves. Which makes it super refreshing to read. That no matter what stage in life you are in, you can always have a fresh start.
