    About this ebook

    Jacob Stine, one of the owners of the town’s bakery, has wanted Race Carroway since the moment they first met. Despite the obvious tension between them, he’d always assumed that the hunky mechanic would never be interested in him. Jacob had resigned himself to admiring Race from a distance until the day he’s forced to call him for help.

    When the encounter turns steamy and then abruptly ends, Jacob is torn between hurt and confusion. He has to make the decision between finally moving on and trusting Race with one more chance. Will the baker have what it takes to get his man?

      THE BAKER GETS HIS MAN

      Romance on the Go

      Rebecca Brochu

      Copyright © 2013

      Chapter One

      You know eventually he’s going to call the cops on you. You do realize that, don’t you? Jacob Stine jerked back from where he’d practically plastered himself against the storefront window of his bakery, a bottle of cleaning spray and newspaper forgotten in his hands as he whirled around to confront the voice.

      Kyle Dwight, his business partner and best friend, stared back at him, thick arms crossed over his wide chest and a dark brow arched high. Jacob debated playing dumb for a moment, but then he shrugged helplessly because he knew it would do him no good. Kyle had been his best friend since elementary school, and he knew Jacob like the back of his hand and had figured out how to tell when he’s lying without even looking at him years ago. Instead he adopted his most pitiful expression and shuffled closer to Kyle so he can beat his forehead against the solid wall of his friend’s chest.

      "I know. I’m pathetic and a stalker and he isn’t interested, so I need to stop. But I can’t." Jacob whined low in his throat but smiled softly to himself when one of Kyle’s massive hands came up to ruffle his messy brown locks.

      I didn’t say any of that, but you do look like a complete creeper when you’re drooling on the window because he’s outside with his shirt off.

      His shirt’s off? Jacob whirled back around towards the window, his expression eager, only to feel his face fall when he noticed that the lot across the street was empty. Kyle chuckled behind him and Jacob turned back, best overly disappointed expression in place.

      That was cruel, Kyle. Cruel and unusual. We’re not friends anymore. Kyle swept him up into warm hug, and Jacob just snuggled closer to his friend’s chest, glad that the other man had never had a problem with indulging his own tactile ways. Kyle had always found the way Jacob descended into immaturity occasionally amusing. Their closeness had gotten them both mercilessly teased in school, but a few fights had proved that neither of them were pushovers, and after that they’d been left pretty much alone.

      Am I … interrupting? Jacob froze and then felt his face go red with mortification as he slowly turned in the circle of Kyle’s arms, disbelief and horror twisting in his stomach.
