Marcy:
Some might call me a people-pleaser. A Type-A, stress baker with a bread obsession. I’ve followed my family’s path for me, checking off the right boxes, all to make them happy.
Small problem. I’m not happy.
I haven’t dared tell my parents or my Italian grandmother my dream to ditch my accounting job to open a bakery. A family legacy to honor my grandparents whose bakery shuttered after my grandfather passed. They worked too hard to provide my brothers and me an easier life.
Now I have a real shot at my dream. Inheritance money my grandmother is offering (while alive) to set us up for our next phase of life. The hitch? I need to be thirty or married.
With two years to go and not a fiancé in sight, I’ll be stress baking like it’s a full-time job.
Patrick:
Running for small-town mayor has turned small-time disaster. Now I’m doing the thing I swore I’d never do again: asking my parents for help.
My mother sweeps in with a top-tier campaign manager on a mission to make me relatable to voters. Simply stated, I need a wife. A fake one will do, a fiancée for the run of the campaign.
There’s no one I trust more for the role than Marcy. She’s my best friend’s sister, and one of my closest friends.
My brilliant plan will help us both. She’ll unlock the money for her bakery. I’ll look like a stable mayoral candidate and make a difference in my town.
One catch. I’m in love with her and she can never know.
A Day in the Loaf is a sweet (and a little zany) fake engagement romantic comedy. This is the second book in a series about four friends who find their careers and love lives in need of a major reboot. This book can be read as a standalone.”
