What a bittersweet ending to everything! This was a wonderful story about four men coming together to run a bakery. By the end of this series, they'd become their own found family. I wouldn't ever consider this a real love story. Sure there were elements of it, but honestly it came down to the four individuals and how they came together to create this beautiful bakery and building relationship together. 

Honestly after the first volume, I didn't expect to like this series. But honestly it grew on me over time and every character became one that I cared about. Also the confusion and disjointedness from the beginning volume was cleared up by the end which was nice, so it did have a purpose. Overall a really nice series about found family and French baked goods!
