The Baker's Good Girl: An Age-Gap Sapphic Romance

Marisol Vega has spent thirty years perfecting the art of the pastry and keeping her heart under lock and key. As the stern, uncompromising owner of a storied Vermont bakery, she prides herself on her discipline. But when a predatory corporate takeover threatens to shutter her legacy, Marisol finds herself fighting against a ticking clock, leaving no room for error—and certainly no room for romance. Enter Sienna Lane, a twenty-four-year-old culinary prodigy fleeing a nightmarish past in the New York restaurant scene. Seeking a sanctuary, Sienna finds herself in Marisol’s kitchen, where the flour-dusted air is thick with more than just the scent of sugar. Under Marisol’s demanding, magnetic, and fiercely protective mentorship, Sienna finally begins to bloom. Yet, the narrow aisles and quiet corners of the kitchen soon turn into a pressure cooker for their burgeoning attraction. As the heat rises between them, professional boundaries begin to crumble. They must contend with the encroaching corporate wolves and the ghosts of Sienna's past while deciding if their connection is worth the ultimate sacrifice. Set against the backdrop of a high-stakes battle for survival, their story is a provocative, high-heat exploration of power, protection, and the courage to finally let someone in.
