THE BEAN AND BUN

Ditching corporate America to run her dream beachside bakery on Sandcastle Island sounded like a good idea at the time.

But Aggie Jeffries is quickly realizing the reality doesn’t quite match up with the fantasy she imagined. Aggie could slink back to Houston in defeat or risk everything to run oceanfront, luxury cooking retreats in the ancestral family home of Brooks Jagger, the world famous novelist who returned to the island after a humiliating break up with his Hollywood girlfriend.

It just might work, but the house holds a secret, the neighbors want her gone, and she’s falling for Brooks, which feels like the biggest risk of all. With her new-found island family, can they unlock the secret of the house, find a way for Aggie to stay, and maybe even give her a chance at love?
