Carter Angel Dixon had one hell of a year. After going through a nasty breakup she thought things were looking up, though. She found a great rental house and her job at the bakery was busier than ever. Sure, there was the mysteriously absent landlord and the boredom that her life became once she swore off men but she was handling everything just fine. That is until the landlord shows up, and won't leave. He brings with him a world of new troubles, including huge men that try to kill Carter, dangerous flirting, and her cheating ex. With both frustrating men in the picture Carter can't remember why she ever thought her life had become boring. Unfortunately for the men in her life, the ones pursuing her and the ones attacking her, she's not just going to roll over and take it. Even covered in baking flour and cupcake icing Carter can handle anything they throw at her, because under her clothes she's tougher than they give her credit for. She knows that the question isn't whether or not she'll live through another turbulent patch, but whether or not she'll do it while still keeping her pact of swearing off men. Will she be able to keep her apron on through the flying bullets and advances of one especially sexy landlord? She sure hopes so.
