A cozy cooking romance with low angst and high heat.

Locky Sorenson would bake every day if he could. There was just something magical about it. In the sight of the tidy copper measuring spoons. In the soft swish of flour through a silver sieve. In the alluring scent of freshly whipped buttercream or gooey chocolate chip cookies.

Of course, he'd never be a real baker. That was just a dream. And 30-something accountants didn't get to live their dreams. Or so he thought.

When Locky unexpectedly loses his job, he decides to put his whole redundancy payout towards a wild business a night-time bakery. A decadent midnight escape for those who like their cakes thick and their buns sticky.

To help him succeed, he hires the supportive but scatter-brained project manager, Benedict Harris. While it all starts professionally, they quickly discover that cupcakes aren't the only thing rising in their kitchen. And that the metal bench-top makes an excellent surface to really pound out the dough.

Now they have to decide just how deep they want to go together. Will they biscuit all for love? Or will they decide the whisk is just too great?

Bears & Bakeries is a sweet and spicy romance about chunky men - as tasty and indulgent as a cream filled donut.
