Liv has always dreamed of making pastries that tell a story, but her days in the hotel kitchen are anything but sweet. Stuck under the thumb of a demanding manager and churning out the same uninspired recipes, she feels her creativity slipping away. That is, until her passion is reignited when she comes across a forgotten storefront on a rainy afternoon. Against her reservations—and her boyfriend Onno's cautious advice—Liv leaps headfirst into opening her own pastry shop, determined to bring her vision to life not matter the cost.

But dreams don't come without challenges. As Liv navigates the chaos of running a business, she finds an unexpected ally in Matthew, the landlord's charming and resourceful son. His support is invaluable, but his presence stirs up emotions Liv didn't anticipate, leaving her torn between the life she's building and the one she thought she wanted. With her heart and her future on the line, Liv must decide: will she follow the recipe she's always known, or take a chance on something entirely new?
