"Scrumptiously entertaining . . . Fans of a certain popular British baking show will be giddy with delight."- Booklist When…
two women meet as judge and contestant on the set of a TV baking competition, they must decide what they're willing to risk for the ultimate prize in this wholesome and delectable debut. LAMBDA LITERARY AWARD FINALIST • A POPSUGAR BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR Food is their love language, but can they follow a recipe for romance? Tori Moore, high school chemistry teacher, avid home baker, and soon-to-be empty nester, auditions for the American Bake-o-Rama TV competition at the urging of her twin teenagers. The prize money could allow her to finally open her own bakery, but plagued by self-doubt after a messy divorce, it's not only money standing between Tori and her dreams. Once on set in Sonoma wine country, Tori catches the eye of Kendra Campbell, the notoriously ruthless celebrity chef and Bake-o-Rama judge. This show is Kendra's ticket to financial security, but she's been told to soften her approach for viewers seeking feel-good entertainment-quite the task after years of fighting for space in a male-dominated industry. Tori and Kendra find it increasingly hard to keep their distance through six slow-burn weeks of cooking challenges and kitchen disasters. For both, the best prize of all might just be love
