"I’ve read this series out of order, reading Paris Daillencourt first, but the books don’t have to be read in order. I really enjoy the baking setting with the show similar to the Great British Baking Show. I really enjoyed Jennifer and her strong language and found her to be one of the funniest parts of the book. I like Rosaline and her daughter a lot and think she has a really great journey throughout the book. Harry is amazing, but doesn’t have any great amount of depth, which can be okay. This book is largely self-discovery more than romance, but is still sweet overall. 4⭐️, 2🌶"
