Freja Sorenson is content running 2 Sisters Kringle and Fudge, their family business in Dickens. She decides to rent out the back apartment in her big Victorian home. She's taken aback when the man who once held a special place in her heart wants to rent the space. Once a loving couple, she suffered his betrayal when he shared her secret ingredient with her biggest contender when she competed in her culinary school's distinguished bake-off.
