A seductive, slow-burn thriller laced with danger, secrets, and sinfully good pastries.

Scarlett Blackwell is the kind of woman who turns heads-and keeps knives just as sharp as her curves. By day, she runs Sugar Black, the most talked-about bakery in Nevada Grove.

But don't let the frosted cupcakes fool you.

There's something else baking behind that counter.

When a brooding stranger wanders into town with a smirk that could burn the whole place down, Scarlett's carefully controlled world begins to crack. Tension simmers. Lines blur. And soon, Nevada Grove is no longer safe for anyone with something to hide.

In a town where nothing is as sweet as it seems, and every secret comes with a price, one woman must decide how far she'll go to protect what's hers-and who she might become in the process.

Sugar, Smoke & Sin is a dangerously addictive debut that blends small-town charm with pulse-pounding suspense and just the right amount of heat.
