From the bestselling author of the Angel Falls series, two enemies say “I do” in the first irresistible book about Blossom Glen.
Pastry chef Tessa Montgomery knows what everyone in the teeny town of Blossom Glen says about her. Spinster. Ice Queen. Such a shame. It’s enough to make a woman bake her troubles away, dreaming of Parisian delicacies while she makes bread at her mother’s struggling boulangerie. That is until Tessa’s mortal enemy—deliciously handsome (if arrogant) chef Leo Castorini, who owns the restaurant next door—proposes a business plan…to get married.
Leo knows that the Castorinis and the Montgomerys hate each other, but a marriage might just force these stubborn families to work together and blend their businesses for success. The deal is simple: Tessa and Leo marry, live together for six months, and then go their separate ways. Easy peasy.
It’s a sweetheart deal where everyone gets what they want—until feelings between the faux newlyweds start seriously complicating the mix. Have they discovered the perfect recipe for success…or is disaster on the way?
Each book in the Blossom Glen series is STANDALONE:
* The Sweetheart Deal

Tessa has given up a lot for her family and refuses to see her family's business go down without a fight. Meanwhile their neighboring restaurant and mortal enemies seem to be in the same boat but Leo's father seems to be convinced Leo just needs a family of his own. So Leo proposes a deal to Tessa as a marriage arrangement that can help both sides of the family and maybe also bring them together then after go their seperate ways when they ultimately get what they want. What could possibly go wrong?
This was such a fun read. I mean I feel like I've read many different books just like it but this author seemed to make this fun and unique and enjoyable still. It was interesting seeing how different the family dynamics both Tessa and Leo had, they would would nearly anything for their family. Tessa gave up a lot for her family after her father passed and her mother was grieving and she became the pillar of strength almost a mother to her siblings and it was hard to see what she was willing to do which includes giving up her dreams. Then there was Leo trying to be there for his stubborn father but there just wasn't anything getting through to his father. Leo can see things slowly going down and could use some sprucing up and updating and all his father could think was for Leo to make a family of his own. Overall this was a pretty great book, I really enjoyed reading it.
