📚Blurb📚
I'm Levi Buchanan, and until five years ago, I thought the legend of my family's curse was a load of crazy, Southern nonsense.
No curse can make you fall in love at first sight. No curse can force a true, deep, passionate, all-consuming love that will haunt you all the days of your life.
Then I met Jocelyn Abernathy and I realized how completely wrong I was.
The problem is, Jocelyn guards her feelings like well-armed soldier. She's the most beautiful, stubborn, infuriating woman I've ever met. Every time she talks, I want to kiss the living daylights out of her. But I can't.
Because when we met, she didn't need true love. She needed a best friend. And that's what I've been to her... for five years.
But when Jocelyn meets a handsome stranger her first day working at Donner Bakery and she lets him buy her a dill pickle cupcake, I realize with ominous regret that I may have missed my window with my best friend.
If I can't get her to see past our friendship, my new curse may be to watch the love of my life move on with someone else.
📚 Cassie's Review 📚
This was such a sweet friends to lovers story. Karla Sorensen absolutely did justice to the Smartypants lineup with this book. Levi can easily slide onto anyone's book boyfriend list. He's so romantic. *Swoon*
Karla is absolutely a master storyteller, I do not remember ever tearing up at a wedding scene in a book before, but I did in this book!
'"And if I love but once in this cruel, weary world, well, I'm glad I loved once with you."’
‘“Don't tell me this doesn't spark some serious joy," I whispered brushing my lips with hers.'
📚 Ashley's Review 📚
If you're looking for a high-angst story featuring a couple of jerks, this is NOT the book for you. Baking Me Crazy is a sweet friends-to-lovers romance set in the same universe as Penny Reid's Winston Brother Series. The book is a delightful return to Green Valley, Tennessee and an introduction to some wonderful new characters. The friendship and love between Levi and Jocelyn is peak heart eyes emoji.
