Bakery Sisters

"A real treat" about first loves, coming home, and chocolate cake from the #1 New York Times–bestselling author of Sweet Talk and Sweet Spot (Debbie Macomber). Jesse Keyes has changed her ways. With a steady job and a vibrant son, Gabe, she's in a far better place than when she left Seattle five years ago, pregnant and misunderstood. Now it's time to go home and face her demons. But her sisters, Claire and Nicole, aren't exactly impressed with the new and improved Jesse. And then there's Matt, Gabe's father, who makes it clear he hasn't forgiven her despite the lust that still smolders between them. Jesse doesn't know if she can make up for all the mistakes of her past. But the promise of sweet nights with Matt might just give her the extra incentive she needs to make it worth the trouble . . . "Old ghosts come back to haunt in the satisfying conclusion to Mallery's tough and tender Sweet trilogy . . . This author knows drama!" -RT Book Reviews "Sweet Trouble is a well written book about reestablishing relationships-family and romantic-as well as finding your way home." -The Good, the Bad, and the Unread "The final installment in Susan Mallery's Keyes sisters trilogy, provides redemption for Jesse, the family bad girl. Despite her checkered past, I found her to be a likable, interesting heroine . . . an enjoyable read." -All About Romance

From #1 New York Times bestselling author Susan Mallery comes three fan-favorite tales of sisterhood, love, and fresh starts. Sweet Talk The twenty-eight-year-old piano prodigy, Claire Keyes, has never had a regular boyfriend, much less a real romance. Claire is determined to fall in love, or at least in lust, for the first time. Ruggedly sexy Wyatt just might fit the bill. Although he keeps saying that he and Claire come from entirely different worlds, he lights up hotter than a bakery oven whenever Claire is near. If this keeps up, she just might sweet-talk him into her bed...and her life. Sweet Spot "Responsibility" should be Nicole Keyes's middle name. But super reliable Nicole is getting sick of putting everyone else's needs first. Enter Hawk. The deliciously sexy former NFL player offers Nicole a taste of the freedom she craves. Hawk might be a sweet temptation, but Nicole's not about to let him get close enough to break her heart. Of course, she might not have a choice in the matter... Sweet Trouble Jesse Keyes has changed her ways. With a steady job and a vibrant son, Gabe, she's in a far better place than when she left Seattle five years ago, pregnant and misunderstood. Now it's time to go home and face her demons. But Matt, Gabe's father, makes it clear he hasn't forgiven her. Jesse doesn't know if she can make up for her past mistakes, but she can promise to make it worth the trouble.... Previously published.

A fan favorite from the #1 New York Times–bestselling author of Sweet Spot and Sweet Trouble: "Smart, sexy romance doesn't get any better than this." -Debbie Macomber Is there anything sweeter than first love? Don't ask Claire Keyes. The twenty-eight-year-old piano prodigy has never had a regular boyfriend, much less a real romance. Her music career has left little room for friends or family-which is just part of the reason she hasn't seen the family bakery or her two sisters in years. But now Nicole is sick, and Jesse is AWOL. Despite the fact that Claire can't boil water, she's determined to play caretaker. Connecting with her sisters tops her to-do list . . . along with falling in love, or at least in lust, for the first time. Ruggedly sexy Wyatt just might fit the bill. Although he keeps saying that he and Claire come from entirely different worlds, he lights up hotter than a bakery oven whenever Claire is near. If this keeps up, she just might sweet-talk him into her bed . . . and her life. "One of those stories you don't want to end. It has plenty of laugh-out-loud moments and just the right amount of lump-in-your-throat moments . . . This is the first of the Bakery Sisters trilogy, and will be a hard act to follow." -Fresh Fiction "Romantic, daring, and hopeful . . . Sweet Talk is definitely a winner." -Single Titles "Susan Mallery has whipped up a cast of fun, eccentric characters who will keep readers turning the pages." -Romance Reviews Today

From the #1 bestselling author: "[A] heartwarming novel about how a woman at odds with the world learns to live with it, and sometimes even love in it." -Booklist "Responsibility" should be Nicole Keyes's middle name. After all, not many people would sacrifice their lives to run the family bakery and raise a younger sibling. But with Nicole's twin sister now blissfully married and her younger sis turning out more femme fatale than girl-next-door, super reliable Nicole is getting sick of putting everyone else's needs first! Enter Hawk. The deliciously sexy former NFL player offers Nicole a taste of the freedom she craves. Hawk may know the way, blindfolded, to her sweet spot, but Nicole's not about to let him get close enough to break her heart. Of course, she might not have a choice in the matter if Hawk's past keeps getting in the way of their present . . . "Mallery is in top-notch form as she takes troubled and stubborn individuals and portrays their emotional growth.
