This one was complicated. Started slow and sweet, picked up to something really lovely and had a surprising (but real feeling) trigger warning situation… ultimately it made me think harder than I expected - challenges misconceptions, second guesses classest viewpoints. It has very light steam, but lots of f-bombs and similar level of descriptors.

Was my favorite part of this the thinly-veiled GBBO references? Absolutely.

I love Bake Off so I definitely wanted to read this one. That said, I thought I was getting a rom-com centered on a f/f romance. This is definitely not that. All love interests for this lovely bisexual, single mom are men. That in itself doesn't bother me at all. One of the men is lovely and I fell in love with him a little myself. I just wish I hadn't going into it thinking something else was waiting for me.
The humor is great, the characters are fun, but it seemed overly long to me with the initial relationship going on much longer than maybe it should have. But the fun of the bake off bits made it worth it for me.
