Skillets, Sparks & Stupid Confidence: A Romantic Comedy

By Dalton Douglas

At Dalton Blind Date Camp, bad weather is inconvenient.

Bad timing is inevitable.

And catching feelings while trapped in a camp kitchen with the most frustratingly charming man alive? Completely unacceptable.

Beau Mills came to Dalton Blind Date Camp with one goal: survive the weekend without becoming part of Maggie Dalton's increasingly meddlesome matchmaking success rate. Practical, dependable, and far more comfortable managing a grill than a relationship, Beau has no interest in romance-especially not with someone who treats life like an improv challenge.

Bas Cross has confidence, charm, and a suspicious lack of practical survival skills.

Unfortunately, he also has excellent timing when Beau least wants to laugh.

When a storm forces the camp indoors, Beau and Bas get assigned to kitchen duty-feeding hungry campers, managing chaos, and somehow surviving a weekend where emotions seem to spread faster than coffee refills. Beau insists Bas is all charm and no substance.

Bas insists Beau secretly likes him.

Both of them are probably in trouble.

As storms roll in and camp plans fall apart, Beau and Bas discover that care sometimes looks like hot food, steady hands, and someone showing up exactly when you need them-even if they arrive with entirely too much confidence.

Skillets, Sparks & Stupid Confidence is a warm, banter-filled MM romantic comedy featuring forced proximity, campfire cooking, weather delays, meddling matchmaking, emotional competence disguised as flirting, and one deeply inconvenient attraction that refuses to stay in the friend zone.
