About this audiobook
Newly divorced, Avery Hart returns home to Wildwood eager to take on her dream opportunity and transform her family's dive bar into her own bakery. The contractor for hire isn't just a master with his hands—he's big, built, and wears a tool belt like nobody's business. Despite being an ex-con, Trace Hutton is irresistible. Too bad he'd never go for someone as inexperienced as Avery.
Trace needs to focus on the job at hand, not daydream about smearing icing all over the sexy baker…and licking it off. This job is the key to getting his construction company back on its feet after his time in prison. Besides, no one deserves a fresh start more than Avery, and she certainly won't get that with him.
After a delectable night of passion (and pie), Trace craves something more. But he'll be damned if he'll let his checkered past crush her dreams. And as Avery starts to realize how Trace fulfills more than just her physical needs, she struggles with whether to let her history decide her future, or explore the wild new possibilities of forever…

I received an Advanced Reader's Copy from NetGalley for voluntary review consideration. - Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Book received from NetGalley.This was more of a 2.5 than a 3-star book for me. I think part of it was that I had not read the first book and was a bit lost at some of the things going on. I will say that it was a very hot read and the chemistry between the main characters was off the charts. I also liked the fact that the characters were doing their best to make something of themselves in a town that wasn't always forgiving of their pasts. I will likely give this another try after I read the first book, this is definitely not a standalone.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I loved this book and this couple! They both had so much on their shoulders, but they carved out a little time for each other. Trace was my kinda man; hardworking, brooding, caring, and just enough of a badass to make a lady sweat. I somehow missed the first book in the series, but you'd better believe I'm going to buy it as soon as I finish this review. I honestly think Ms. Jordan can not write a bad book or even just an okay book. I've only ever read great characters and even better storylines. Let's hope she keeps up this trend.Thanks to Netgalley for the ARC.
