This novella was originally published in Barbour’s Kiss The Bride 4-in-one novella collection.
Once upon a time, Monica Ryan and Gil Butler’s families were inseparable, and so were Monica and Gil, who spent their childhood and adolescence at their families’ soul food restaurant.
But a business disagreement between their fathers put an end to any ideas concerning a happily ever after. Gil’s family continued to run the smokehouse, and Monica’s family took their prize-winning sweet potato pie recipe and pooled their resources into opening a bakery.
Years later, Monica and Gil are thrown into business together again, but they are reluctant to fully trust each another this time around.
Is there forgiveness in the air, or is one of the two plotting to serve the other their Just Desserts?
Bonus: This novella includes a traditional Sweet Potato Pie Recipe.
