We were a humid summer night with the air so close neither one of us could breathe; pressure building before a storm, begging for release. - Noa Baudet

***

Welcome to Wickedly Sweet, where each bite is sinfully delicious.

Noa Baudet has always longed to open her own specialist cupcake shop. So, when an opportunity arises at her favourite bakery in her hometown, Noa ditches her tailored suits for a flour dusted apron.

The only problem? Wickedly Sweet is owned by her arch-rival's grandmother.

Daan Booker doesn't have time for pink-haired dreamers. Even if that annoying little laugh of hers has ingrained itself in his brain and kept him wondering about the woman that vanished from his life all those years ago. He shouldn't care about the only woman who resisted his charms and challenged him. He has a boss to impress and a bakery to liquidate.

With a promotion on the line, Daan finds himself telling a lie to his old-school boss. A lie that puts Noa Baudet not only in his life, but on his arm like the sweet-tart candy she is.

A fake relationship between sworn rivals goes about as well as one could hope, and mixing business with pleasure leaves Daan and Noa in more than a sticky mess.

It risks turning Noa's sweet dream sour as everything she wants gets tied up in Daan as he not only binds her hands with this agreement, but maybe even her heart.
