Tropes: Small Town, Curvy Heroine, Slow Burn, He Falls First, Soft Alpha Hero
Two hearts. One spark. Zero defenses.
Ava Hart bakes cinnamon rolls, cupcakes, and muffins for the whole town… but she hasn’t tasted anything sweet in her own life for a long time. Between running her family bakery and dodging the judgmental booster-club moms, she’s convinced herself she’s “fine.” Quiet. Invisible. Safe.
Then Coach Cooper Hayes walks into her shop—six-foot-four, golden-hearted, and way out of her league—and looks at her like she’s the only thing worth noticing.
Their chemistry is instant. Their friendship is easy. But every time Cooper tries to get close, Ava pulls back. And Cooper? He’s done pretending he doesn’t want more.
When a town fundraiser throws them together—and a few meddling friends nudge them closer—Ava has to face the truth: Maybe she’s been starving for something sweeter than cinnamon rolls.

Chapter One Preview
The box of cinnamon rolls had nearly slipped from Ava Calder’s arms twice already, and she was only halfway across the parking lot.
She should have made two trips. That would have been the smart thing to do. But Ava didn’t do smart when it came to proving herself. She did stubborn. She did determined. She did “I can carry everything in one trip even if it kills me.”
The Maplewood High School football field stretched out before her, vibrant green against the cloudless September sky. This was it—her chance to prove that Sweet & Butter wasn’t just another small-town bakery.
“Hey, you need help with that?” A lanky teenager jogged toward her.
“Oh, thank God. Yes, please.” She transferred the top two boxes to his waiting arms. “I was about three seconds away from wearing these pastries instead of delivering them.”
“Coach would kill us if something happened to these before we got to try them. He’s been talking about your bakery all week.”
Warmth bloomed in Ava’s chest. “He has?”
Then she saw him. The coach.
He was tall—easily over six feet—with broad shoulders that filled out his Maplewood Football t-shirt in a way that should probably be illegal. Dark hair, slightly damp with sweat. A jawline that could cut glass. And he was walking straight toward her.
Ava’s hands stilled on a cinnamon roll. Her brain chose that exact moment to completely shut down.
The coach turned his head mid-stride, his gaze sweeping across the field. Then it landed on her.
And he stopped walking. Just stopped, right there in the middle of the field, like someone had pressed pause on him. The clipboard slipped from his hand and clattered to the ground.
“You must be Ava.” His voice was rougher in person, like gravel wrapped in velvet.
