When a baker meets the bookshop owner of her dreams, and he turns into her nemesis, they' ll both have to read between the lines to avoid a career-ending recipe for disaster. Max Boyson looks good. . . from a distance. But up close and personal, the tattooed hottie Joelle Prima has been crushing on for the past year and half has turned into the prime example of why you shouldn' t judge a book by his delectable cover. When she first learned about the massive renovation to the building they share, Joelle imagined that temporarily combining her Filipino bakery with Max' s neighboring bookstore would be the perfect opening chapter to their happily ever after. In her fantasies they fed each other bibingka and pandesal while discussing Jane Austen and cooing over her pet hamster, Pumpkin. Reality, however. . . is quite different. Her gallant prince turned out to be a stubborn toad who snaps at her in front of customers, dries his wet clothes in her oven, and helps himself to the yummy pastries in her display case without asking. But beneath Max' s grumpy glares, Joelle senses a rising heat-and a softening heart. And when they discover the real reason for the renovation, they' ll have to put both their business senses and their feelings for each other to the test.
