Welcome to Sugar Gap, Tennessee. Population: complicated.
Brick storefronts, a white gazebo on the square and the scent of cinnamon drifting from Sweet Blessings Bakery.
Mariah Dyersburg used to live above that bakery. Twelve years ago she ran from it, leaving her family and first love behind.
Now she’s an award-winning chef in Seattle. A new name. A designer wardrobe. A reputation for reducing her staff to tears. The freckled bakery girl is long gone, and Mariah likes it that way.
Then her grandmother’s lawyer calls.
The terms of the will are simple. Mariah and her two estranged sisters must return to Sugar Gap and complete fifteen seasonal tasks set by their grandmother. A scavenger hunt that sends them chasing memories all over the town they grew up in.
There’s just one problem. The handsome county sheriff roped into helping is Sam Jenkins. The boy whose heart she broke when she left all those years ago.
Fifteen tasks. Two sisters who haven’t forgiven her. One stubborn sheriff who never stopped loving her. And her grandmother’s chocolate bourbon pie . . . Suddenly Mariah finds Sugar Gap may be a lot harder to leave.
Grab a spiced latte, order the pie and stay a while. Sugar Gap has been waiting for you.
