About this listen

She’s almost got the recipe for success, but love might be the missing ingredient. Callie Jones thought she had everything figured out with her booming bakery and close-knit friends in Peachwood Grove—until her first love, Macon Everette, rolls back into town. The surprise isn't just that he's back, but he's a father now, with an adorable daughter who's as charming as he is. Callie’s world starts to crumble faster than day-old scones. As Callie and Macon reignite a connection that's hotter than her ovens, they must navigate the surprises and secrets of their past. Can Callie adjust to the new realities of Macon's life, and can they mix the right ingredients for a second chance at love?

Get swept away in a sweet and steamy ride through small-town Georgia, where second chances are served up with a whole lot of heart.

This audiobook was like wrapping yourself in a warm, vanilla-scented blanket. Set in a quaint small town with just the right amount of southern charm, Callie and Macon delivered a heartwarming romance that tugged at my heartstrings.

The story beautifully blends second-chance love, family ties, and scenes that feel cozy and real. I especially loved how the rekindled romance between the main characters wasn't just an immediate romance and that they actually brought up the issues from the past and communicated. Makes it more real for me.

At just the right length, this was a perfect short listen for a lazy afternoon or a few commutes. And can we talk about the voice actors? Their chemistry was sooo nice. Their tones were perfectly matched—smooth, emotive, and completely immersive. Honest to god I could make a little movie in my head they way they just *fit*

If you're looking for something heartfelt, a little sweet, a little steamy, this audiobook is an absolute must-listen. I already want to visit that small town again!
