An Enchanted Beginning
Abigail ran the bakery the women in her family had started generations before, using her kitchen empathy Gift to infuse the baked goods with positive emotions to benefit the community. She loved what she did, but no more so than when the door jangled and in walked Killian James. He fascinated her like no one else and their daily conversations in the bakery were the highlight of her day as he slowly gave her glimpses of the charming man under the shuttered façade.
A man looking for a new start
New to town, Killian had left all he’d ever known and knew his scarred soul might never heal but everything changed when he walked into the local bakery and looked into the warm brown eyes of Abigail Harrington. His head told him to back away, that it was dangerous to even contemplate letting anyone get close but his soul recognized something in her that drew him ever closer. Her innocently alluring warmth made resisting her as difficult as not eating her warm cinnamon rolls and, as he found himself returning to the bakery every morning, began to wonder why he was fighting it at all.
Falling under Autumn’s Magic
When the annual Harvest Moon Festival begins, the town is painted with pumpkins, caramel apples, and magical corn mazes under brilliant blue autumnal skies. An impulsive invitation on Killian’s part leads the two of them to nights baking muffins and days strolling through the festively decorated town square with Abigail’s hand in his.
But when the truth of his past comes to light, will it irrevocably damage their chance for a future together?
