My Sweet Escape

By Barbara Howard

A viral mistake leads to a sweet escape-can love be found in the quiet corners of life?

When LA-based social media star Myka Monet's perfectly curated life implodes after a viral scandal, she escapes to the quaint town of Cider Mill, Ohio. Her plan? To lay low until the storm passes. What she doesn't expect is to find herself drawn to Jackson "Jack" Miller, a third-generation candy maker who creates magic with copper pots and believes some moments are better left uncaptured.

As Myka trades her ring light for chocolate-stained aprons, she discovers there's more to life than likes and follows. But just as she and Jack begin to create their own sweet blend of traditional craftsmanship with a modern flair, her social media past threatens to unravel their budding romance.

With her heart on the line and her career hanging by a thread, Myka must decide what matters more: reclaiming her online empire or pursuing a love that's anything but virtual.

My Sweet Escape is a heartwarming contemporary romance about finding authenticity in a filtered world, the courage to be vulnerable, and the sweet truth that sometimes life's most precious moments deserve to be savored, not shared.
