Marlow Scott's world is simple: a bakery to run, a daughter to raise, and a heart kept guarded. Milly is her joy, her reason to keep going - until Harry steps back into their lives. Steady, patient, and scarred in his own ways, Harry slowly becomes part of their rhythm: flour‑dusted mornings, bedtime giggles, and quiet nights that make Marlow wonder if she can trust again.
Burnt Sugar is a tender story of love, family, and second chances - proof that sometimes the sweetest things take time to rise.
Meet Harry Styles.
A 17 year old who doesn't talk to anyone.
All he does is sit at home and study; nothing more.
Unlike the rest of the people in Harry's school, he's smart.
If Harry talked he would have a normal life and actually have friends.
He doesn't mind not having friends; it gives him more time to study and to be lonely.
Harry's goal in life is to be able to go to college all the way in California; with or without any friends.
