She’s All That meets Bridgerton in this charming debut historical rom-com with a modern twist, sure to charm fans of Jennieke Cohen and Jenna Evans Welch.

If Evie Clement is an everyday brioche, then Beau Bellegarde is a glossy, sugar-dusted macaron. Beautiful on the outside—mostly air on the inside.

As a baker’s daughter, Evie knows her pastries. She also knows that if she wants to break out and create her own future away from the bakery, she needs to stay focused.

So when Beau Bellegarde starts coming to call, she sees right through him. The playboy of Paris, the second son of the ultra wealthy Bellegarde family, the most popular guy in their prestigious high school? Pass.

But unfortunately for Evie, Beau needs her. With his inheritance on the line, he’s been roped into a bet with his conniving stepbrother: turn the biggest wallflower they know into the winning Bellegarde Bloom at the annual Court of Flowers Ball, or lose his entire fortune.

Evie doesn’t trust Beau, but his attention has her intrigued. Is it possible a rake like Beau could have more substance to him under his sugary exterior?

This frothy delight of a debut will capture the hearts of rom-com fans and historical fiction fans alike.
