Publisher's Synopsis
Earlier this year, Autumn's life looked great: she had a great relationship with her brilliant teenage daughter Chloe and from September she was all set to be Deputy Head at the London school where she works. And with a pay rise on the cards, she was excited for her and her long-term boyfriend Marc to buy their first home. But Autumn's barely opened the estate agent's website when Marc vanishes with half their savings, leaving her no choice but to move into grandma's rural home in Kent. And things go from bad to worse when Autumn is involved in an accident during the move, leaving the village's dashing new baker Jake in plaster cast, and making her a local outcast before she's even unpacked her bags. Determined to put things right, Autumn offers to help Jake in the bakery over the summer holidays. But as things heat up in the kitchen, Autumn can't help noticing that Jake is a lot more Paul Hollywood and a lot less Mr Kipling than she originally thought. Maybe this summer isn't such a write off after all?
