Captain Comet and the Cupcake Catastrophe

By Pamela Beach

She thinks he's a disaster. He's just trying not to blow his cover.

Clara's bakery, The Sweet Escape, is her pride and joy. Captain Comet, the city's celebrated superhero, is her sworn enemy. He may save the day, but his "rescues" always seem to end with a monorail through her front window or a city-wide power outage that ruins a perfect batch of brioche. Her viral rants about his incompetence are legendary. If she never saw the caped calamity again, it would be too soon.

Enter Leo Vance. He's a sweet, clumsy astrophysicist with a love for old sci-fi movies and an adorable habit of ordering the bluest cupcake on the menu. He's also the only person who will listen to Clara's tirades against Captain Comet with a sympathetic ear. Clara finds herself falling for him, completely unaware that Leo is the very man she despises.

Leo is living a nightmare. He's head-over-heels for a woman who publicly hates the other half of his life. Every date is a minefield of flimsy excuses and near-misses as he struggles to keep his two worlds from colliding. How can he build a future with Clara when his life is built on a super-powered lie?

But when a theatrical villain with a flair for the dramatic decides to target Captain Comet's biggest critic, the secret is bound to come out, and the fallout could be more catastrophic than any of Comet's clumsy rescues.

Perfect for fans of witty banter, charmingly flawed characters, and superhero-sized romantic stakes, Captain Comet and the Cupcake Catastrophe is a laugh-out-loud romantic comedy about secret identities, embracing imperfection, and the superpower of a perfectly baked cupcake.
