And I usually like the miscommunication trope, but here it was just too obvious to keep me engaged. I never really felt their pining nor any real tension or the promised “steamy nights” from the blurb. Unfortunately, I haven’t read the first book in this series, which might explain why I felt that the characters and their romance were a bit underdeveloped. Broken-hearted Ben takes the opportunity to hide at his grandma’s 80th birthday party, only to find out that the hired musician for it is… Adam. When Ben is a finalist on a reality show, his absent father decides to show up and make a claim to the famous cinnamon recipe, at the same as Adam rejects him on national TV. Ben Parrish is the local pastry chef, who’s been baking his grandma’s cinnamon rolls at the family café for years, while secretly pining for his neighbor, Adam Reed, the musician and local car mechanic guy. In the Case of Heartbreak is the second book in the Fern Falls series, and the main characters here have been part of the first book in the series as well.
