Whiskey and Gumdrop Hearts

Be my Valentine, Blueberry Springs. The latest standalone short story romance from New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Jean Oram. One woman focused on her career. One boyfriend who wants more. One question to settle their future. Award-winning baker Mandy Mattson doesn’t just want her cake, she wants to eat it too. But first she needs to expand her new restaurant so she can finally meet her boyfriend Frankie Smith in an equal partnership instead of always leaning on him in order to make her dreams come true. The only problem is that Frankie wants more of the one thing expanding business owners don’t have—time. When her boyfriend runs out of patience, Mandy is faced with choosing their relationship or the expansion. Will Mandy make the right choice? Or will she find a way to have her cake and eat it too?
