Dwindling finances has Jesse Robinson running out of
options. With a past filled with failures, she longs for a new beginning.
Applying for a job she isn’t qualified for may be another crazy mistake, but at
this point Jesse has nothing to lose.
Juggling two jobs, Travis Cooper has absolutely no time for
a relationship and isn’t looking for one. But when his mother hires an
unqualified baker, he has more to worry about than three-tiered wedding cakes.
Like whether to break his own no-dating-employees rule and make a little room
in his life for love.
Excerpt:
‘How hard can baking be? Easy‐peasy. Right?’ She knew her words to be
untrue. She’d watched shows on the Food Network. The chefs on television made
creating desserts appear simple, yet Jessie’s attempts always ended with
opening a window and the lid on the garbage can.
‘I have no choice, and at this point I
have nothing to lose.’ Jessie had thought the same before her previous four
jobs. Though, she did excel at one particular skill—making bad choices. If only
she could include that talent as a positive trait.
She drew in a deep breath to calm her
racing pulse. Desperation rolled in the emptiness of her stomach. She’d just go
into the bakery and win them over. She had to. The two hundred dollars in her
bank account would cover her car payment. As long as I don’t eat or drive anywhere,
I’m good.

DeleteYum! Believe it or not, my ex started a French Patisserie after we divorced. I have to admit, he's a brilliant baker so it's lucky we parted on good terms. LOL. Good luck with Nothing to Lose, it sounds fabulous. Best, Anni. xx
