Anything your tongue desires, I can bake it. Scones? Child’s play. Cupcakes?
I’ll frost them so good you won’t know what hit you. Donuts? Please.
You’re talking to a master baker.
But there’s one egg I’ve never been able to crack.
My best friend.
Correction: My former best friend.
She’s the apple in my pie. The whip in my cream. The lemon in my meringue. The
wish in my bone.
She’s the one who got away.
After ten years in the military, she’s back. She’s bruised and battered by
life, but she’s back.
Except she’s not my second chance. She’s gone to the dark side.
Running a rival bakery in a town not big enough for two.
So now I have to decide—which do I want more?
My bakery?
Or the woman I never should’ve let go in the first place?
Master Baker is a deliciously fun friends-to-enemies-to-lovers romantic comedyfeaturing a smooth-talking baker, the one who got away, and a goat with more
matchmaking tendencies than a nosy old grandpa. It stands alone with no
cheating or cliffhangers.

Sunny Shelly’s Review: 4 Stars
Back to Shipwreck! Master Baker is as sweet as one of Grady’s delectable donuts. This was a cute friends-to-enemies-to-lovers romance between Grady (who we’ve met before in Flirting With The Frenemy) and Annika, the girl he’s been in love with since he was 14 and couldn’t get over. It’s 10 years after she enlisted in the military, and Annika is back to run her family’s bakery, 10 miles down the road in Sarcasm. (These town names crack me up.) There is a bitter rivalry between the two towns and bakeries, which naturally complicates matters for Grady wanting to be part of Annika’s life again.
But Annika isn’t the same girl who was once his best friend. And the only way to save her family’s business is to ruin Grady’s. And isn’t about to roll over and let that happen. The residents of both towns get involved in the bakery war, but when Grady learns the real reason why Annika so desperately needs her place to succeed, he secretly starts helping her win the battle against his own place. Okay, so it’s a little convoluted, but there are some sugary-sweet moments between them, and the fire is rekindled.
As with most Pippa Grant books, expect some hilarity courtesy of animals — in Master Baker, it’s a dirty-talking parrot and a male goat named Sue. And we get an appearance by the Berger Twins! Another hilarious romcom from Pippa Grant! I received an advanced copy and voluntarily left a review.
romantic comedies that will make tears run down your leg. When she’s not
reading, writing or sleeping, she’s being crowned employee of the month as a
stay-at-home mom and housewife trying to prepare her adorable demon spawn to be
productive members of society, all the while fantasizing about long walks on
the beach with hot chocolate chip cookies.
