Harvest Moon Bakery: A Small-Town Romance About Second Chances and the Sweet Taste of Self-Worth
Before dawn in the quiet Vermont town of Maple Crossing, Lydia Cole opens the doors to her beloved Harvest Moon Bakery. Her cinnamon rolls are legendary, her wit is sharp, and her confidence-well, that's still rising. When a sleek corporate caf opens across the street, Lydia braces for battle. What she doesn't expect is Mason Reid, a marketing consultant with a crooked smile, a soft heart, and a plan to help her business survive.
Mason has built his career on rescuing brands, not falling for the people behind them. But Lydia is nothing like his clients. She's warm, stubborn, and gloriously herself-a woman who makes imperfection taste like art. Their partnership begins as strategy, fueled by flour and friction, and turns into something richer: laughter over late-night baking sessions, touches that linger longer than they should, and the terrifying question of what happens when work turns to love.
As the town's fall festival approaches, the stakes rise with the dough. Lydia must decide whether trusting Mason-and herself-is worth the risk. Can she believe she deserves both success and affection, or will fear keep her behind the counter forever?
Harvest Moon Bakery is a heartwarming, slow-burn romance about a plus-sized woman learning that joy and ambition aren't indulgences-they're essential ingredients. Set against crisp autumn nights and the scent of fresh bread, it's a story of confidence, community, and finding love in a place that feels like home.
Perfect for readers who love emotional tension, witty banter, and characters who taste as real as the world they inhabit, this novel will leave you smiling through tears and craving something sweet.
