Blurb:
As owner of her beloved Gingerbread Bakery, Annie Andrews should have a love life to match her business; sugary and sweet. But instead, she’s locked in a game of words with the irritatingly upbeat bar owner down the street.
Mac Sullivan has everything he wants, except the girl he dreams of. It’s easier to argue with Annie than get her to talk to him but with Jeanie and Logan’s wedding coming up, they're about to spend a lot more time together.
As the snowflakes fall and with romance in the air, will Annie see that the one she loves to hate might just be her perfect match after all?
I don't have a lot to say about this book.
I normally don't like second chance romance, but I gave this one a chance and I am so glad I did. The conflict was super believable and it made sense why the characters acted and reacted the way they did. I loved that we have the "now" and "then" to fully understand the story, and the timing of the chapters was perfect.
At times I really didn't like the protagonists, which is great because no one is 100% likable. They were human and realistic and I loved the way Ann's inconsistent emotions were portraited.
I was expecting insta-love like the romance books that normally fall on my lap, but I loved that it was slow-burn for a change. It's crazy to think that it all occurred in a span of a few days, but understandable. They just needed to be with each other and talk.
Loved it. 5 stars.
