When Ava Bennett left Mapletown, she swore she'd never look back. Big dreams, big city lights, and a fast-paced career left no room for the quiet charm-or painful memories-of her small hometown. But when the unexpected death of her beloved grandmother pulls her back to the very place she fled, Ava is faced with more than just grief. She's been left the keys to the family bakery-and with them, a final wish: to stay for thirty days and see if the life she left behind still has something to offer. What begins as a reluctant obligation quickly becomes a journey of self-discovery. The scent of cinnamon and freshly baked bread stirs old emotions. And the boy she left behind-Elliot, now a sweet, steady man with flour on his shirt and kindness in his eyes-might be exactly what her broken heart needs to heal. As Ava navigates flour-covered mornings, bittersweet memories, and the warmth of a town she once called home, she'll discover that sometimes love rises in the most unexpected places-and that thirty days may be just the beginning. A heartfelt, slow-burn romance full of second chances, healing, and the comforting power of baked goods.
