Independent and hard working, Viola Tully runs a little hole in the wall coffee shop, plus a weekend venture, running a coffee van at the local raceway. She has big dreams for her future, managing everything on her own. She makes the best coffee in town, bakes the most delicious sweets that constantly sell out and are always best sellers. She is happy, running her tiny business, working hard, putting herself and her dreams first. Until she is introduced to a handsome stranger through one of her regulars.
Zane Ashford is single and is only in town for one purpose. That purpose was not Viola Tully or her mouthwatering cakes and slices. But she had unknowingly become the top of his list as he manages his own personal problems, the actual reason why he is in town. If he hadn't invited his cousin to look at something he had acquired, he would have never been introduced to the charming girl leaning out of the coffee shop window, he would never have known she was the same person selling warm and delictable desserts at his cousins drag races and he would have never have wanted to stay in a town he hated just to get to know her.
Zane however, keeping everything about his past, his family and his personal life a secret, not even letting his own cousin in on some of it, finds it all backfires when he falls for Viola.
Secrets come pouring out, emotions run high and betrayal is found. Will it break the independent Viola that has learned to accept help or will she push Zane away, making him choose between his inheritance or her?

His mistress
Loving him was the cruelest kind of torment-a love that lived in the shadows, one that could never bask in the warmth of the sun. I was nothing more than a stolen moment, a whispered name in the dark, a secret he tucked away between the life he had built and the one he wished he could have. I knew, deep down, that I was a fracture in his story, a fleeting escape from the weight of his reality. And yet, I still clung to him, to the illusion that for a few precious hours, he was mine. But the truth was relentless-it came in the form of unanswered texts, in the way he dressed hurriedly after loving me, in the way he said her name with the same tenderness he once gave me. I had given him my heart, knowing he would never be able to keep it, and yet, I loved him still. Loved him as I watched him walk away, loved him as he returned to the arms of the woman he truly belonged to, loved him as I drowned in the loneliness he left behind. Because no matter how much I wished it to be different, I was not his home-I was just a place he visited before going back to where his heart truly lived.Complete
