Publisher's Summary

Charlie Stetko had a life to envy. A penthouse in Manhattan, a beautiful girlfriend, and a circle of perfect friends. Or so she thought. When her girlfriend sends her packing, Charlie ends up unemployed. Without a place to live or money of her own, she’s forced to do the one thing she vowed she never would: Go back to Shaker Falls, Vermont. Back to her parents, back to the bakery where she worked as a teen, back to the small town life - and the people - she left behind.

Emma Grier thought Charlie was the love of her life until that uppity Manhattan entrepreneur swept Charlie off her feet and made her a trophy wife. Charlie left everything Shaker Falls behind, including Emma’s shattered heart. But Emma picked herself back up and now owns a popular restaurant in Shaker Falls. As for her love life? She doesn’t need one. Something else she doesn’t need? Charlie waltzing into her restaurant to sell her the bakery’s pie.

What happens when Charlie and Emma realize their differing paths have led them right back to each other?

Another amazing book, don't miss this

Another amazing book from Georgia Beers. Love the story line and the amazing chemistry between Charlie and Emma, you could really feel the chemistry between them and the heartache Emma feels. OMG such delicious sounding food, you really wanna make pie. and once again Lori Prince gives us another amazing performance.

Don’t miss it

Great read! I get bored easily and It kept my attention from beginning to end.

Worth reading

Georgia Beers never disappoints. The story might be predictable but what love story isn’t? My only issue with the book was narration. Most of the voices were well done but a few were annoying. The only one that really grated my nerves was Dani’s. She sounded like a stoned, Gen Z valley girl with a head cold. Outside of that, the narrator was pretty good. It’s definitely worth the credit.

I’ll be listening to this again

Another hit by Georgia Beers! Pros: Great characters, snappy dialogue, interesting story, lots of chemistry. Con: now I’m dreaming of pie!

Don't listen on an empty stomach!

This book should come with recipes...I mean it! Aside from all the delicious food, there is delicious chemistry between Charlie and Emma with the humor, the heartache and the heat we expect from a Georgia Beers' novel. It doesn't disappoint. Lori Prince provides another excellent performance. Worth your investment.

meh

It was relatively enjoyable, and worth finishing. But Georgia Beers kinda dropped the ball on this one in terms of writing.

well written

this was a well-written my problem was with the person who Reddit their guys wasn't really all that great in every accent sounded slightly country in the same but the book was fantastic.

Loved it!

Loved it. The characters have real depth, and the drama is engaging. I absolutely recommend this story.

This was a big miss for me

I just couldn't get into the characters or the story. They just weren't likeable. Too many random details that went nowhere or weren't resolved. It just didn't have the warm feel that Georgia's books normally have. I just couldn't get invested in the characters. I really kept debating whether to just abandon the book or keep going, hoping it would get better. The narration was just ok. I wish Lori would be mindful of using that stoned, skater/surfer dude type voice. It just doesn't belong in these stories. Lol! sorry Lori.

Second Chance Romance

Dumped by her girlfriend, homeless and penniless, Charlie Stetko returns to Shaker Falls, Vermont to live in her parent’s basement apartment. Working in a bakery and trying to restart her life she bumps into Emma Grier, her high school girlfriend and lover. Emma owns a very successful restaurant and is the head chef. Reunion is the last thing on Emma’s mind after she was broken by the break up. What will life give them next? Great characters and dialogue. Recommend.

cute.

I think cute is the best word. Not the most passionate or intense novel by the author; just warm and lovely. Very predictable and you know the ending from early on. Some aspects of the story could have been given more detail, felt a bit rushed at the end. Nice, but not up there with the best.
