In the charming town of Hallmark Beach, love's a food fight when old flames ignite and rivalries simmer.
Things were sailing smoothly in my little slice of paradise until Blake "the Flake" Moffitt waltzed back into town, looking far too handsome for his own good—and mine. Once upon a time, I was hopelessly in love with my best friend's brother, but that fairytale is history. Now, he's just the guy who broke my heart and vanished without a trace.
This time, I'm determined to shield both of us from any expectations. Thankfully, he's only around for the summer, so maybe I can manage to stomach his presence—oh, did I mention he's our temporary housemate? But now I've got a much bigger problem on my plate...
He's parked his food truck right next to the struggling restaurant where I'm the acting manager—the only full-service spot in town! Under my watch, it's already plunging into the red, and now he's making my life even more chaotic. Guess what, buddy? Game on!
With the Fourth of July festival planning committee bringing us together—and him constantly throwing me off my game with his unexpectedly sweet gestures—I'm conflicted. Is this the same guy who broke my heart, or is he the charming cook I used to adore?
With summer slipping away and his restaurant opening calling him back to the big city, I'm running out of time to figure out if Blake is my greatest rival...or the love I never stopped wanting.
