My summary: Daisy is treating herself on Valentine’s Day and stops at a bakery she loves, even though the owner is always rude to her. She’s sad to see they’re sold out of everything but before she can leave, a huge earthquake hits and she’s trapped in the bakery with the hot, surly baker. Harris Cook has never known how to show his attraction to Daisy before, but now he has a chance.
My thoughts: This is a short and sweet grumpy/sunshine, forced proximity romance. I enjoyed this more than the last few novellas of this Improbable Meet Cute collection as it read more like a developed story, albeit still a bit rushed due to being a novella.
