Where there’s smoke, there’s bound to be a fire. However, fire never smelled this good.

Everyone knows Phoenix “Phee” Preston as the gorgeous, gentle giant, always ready to help in any way she can with a smile on her face. Ever since she was younger, she has always looked up to her grandfather, the town’s Fire Chief. She admired him and respected him, having been raised by him from the age of 6. So it’s only natural that when she turned 18, she followed in his footsteps, becoming the first and only female firefighter in the small town of Tucker, Louisiana.

When her grandpa passed away suddenly, she left town because it was hard being there when he wasn’t. It isn’t until a year later that she finally returns, and as if the Universe was gifting her for returning, she runs into a beautiful woman who immediately captures her heart, not only with her beauty but with a slice of strawberry shortcake. However, the moment is short-lived, and the woman disappears from her life, leaving only the taste of the sweet dessert and her name behind.

A year later, that mysteriously intriguing woman permanently moves to town to take over her late grandmother’s bakery.

Angel Savoie has spent a great deal of her adult life avoiding small towns because of the bad memories she had involving her parents’ death, but now she has no choice but to move to one. To her surprise, the town quickly grows on her, and she can see herself putting down roots in Tucker. Especially after she reconnects with a certain very attractive female firefighter who stops at nothing to make her smile.

The love and zero trauma

The diversity and well written & realistic spicy scenes. Legit happily ever after slice with Black Women.

Black love

I recently discovered this author and I love the stores I've read by her so far!! I loved how the two characters had a shared past which ultimately brought them together. Representation truly matters!

Great story

I loved the story as a whole, but the accent for Phee was too much! I didn’t like it at all.

Smooth talking female main character

Fun love at first sight type of story. I liked how it switched between two characters’ point of view. The vocal performance was great. I appreciated the accents and tones.
