I really enjoyed this and largely didn’t have any complaints, I found it charming and engaging and I liked their growth and growth together. I also never really got all that excited. I think maybe it was my mood? I expected I would like this more than the last one but it was about the same. Looking forward to the next one!

 I like this series, but I didn't love it. Men who bake are so sexy. I am a fan of second-chance or missed-connection romances. August and Sloane were good together when they got out of their own way and head. I'm curious as to where the author goes next. I assume Nicholas is getting his own book next.

Flawed but sweet. A little too much pining for my taste, and also lol that the solution to the big problem is
starting a podcast.

“She was going to make Sugar Blitz the hottest bakery in Dallas. Nothing—and no one—was going to stand in her way.”

Jamie Wesley’s A Legend in the Baking is a delightful mix of second-chance romance, workplace tension, and sweet treats. Sloane, a determined social media manager, is ready to take Sugar Blitz to the next level—until she’s forced to work alongside August, a former football star and secret cupcake enthusiast who also happens to be the man she once had feelings for. Their past adds layers of tension and longing to their already fiery dynamic, making their journey from reluctant colleagues to something more both heartfelt and entertaining. With witty banter, undeniable chemistry, and themes of ambition, passion, and taking risks, Wesley delivers a charming romance that’s as satisfying as a perfectly baked cupcake. While some moments feel a bit predictable, the lovable characters and engaging storyline make this a fun and rewarding read.
