He’s a widowed firefighter. She’s the new baker in town. And one stubborn little girl might be the spark they never saw coming.
After losing his wife, Callum Roberts has no interest in dating. His world revolves around two things: protecting Bayshore Cove as its fire captain and raising his daughter. Relationships? Not a chance. Feelings? Buried deep.
Lila Bennett has one goal: rebuild her life, one cinnamon roll at a time. The last thing she needs is the town’s gruffest single dad haunting her café—or his irresistible six-year-old daughter stealing her heart.
But when a wildfire threatens their quiet coastal town, Lila opens her doors to the community—and to Callum. He’s guarded, grieving, and too easy to fall for. She’s exactly the kind of warmth he didn’t know he needed.
Falling in love means trusting someone to stay. And healing? That’s the bravest risk of all.
A small-town, clean romance for readers who believe love doesn’t fix everything, but helps rebuild.
