The biggest risks have the sweetest reward…

For former Navy SEAL Dean Huntington, Harland County is just a pit stop on his road to a spot on a government spec ops team. Working for his military buddy while continuing PT to get his recently injured arm up to par is a win/win. Sniffing around the also-new-in-town sexy baker is risky to his planned-out future…but taking risks is his life.

Award-winning pastry chef/baker Loni Champion loves to compete all over the world in bake-offs with her twin sister, but a recent diagnosis will put an end to competing as well as her sight. Winning her final competition is all she can think about until the new hot guy in town makes her mouth water with his lean body and mischievous grin.

She's great at taste-pairing but not interested in relationship-pairing, which suits Dean fine because he's not sticking around. But when their temporary fling turns as serious as the threats against Loni if she competes, Dean realizes losing her is not an option and he'll risk it all to keep her safe.
