Piper's heart is broken, her dreams shattered. Just a short while ago, she had a fiancé and her own small business–now she's left with nothing. Dejected, she returns to her hometown to temporarily help out at her aunt's Maple Mug Café. Not exactly the future she had envisioned.

As if that bad luck wasn't enough, she runs into Miles on her very first day. He's the stubborn guy delivering produce to the small, cozy café. Oh, and he's the guy that spilled hot coffee all over her luggage the moment she arrived. Another incident and a heated exchange later, Piper knows she'll never be able to stand the know-it-all, thoughtless, and unbearably attractive Miles.

It's just too bad that in a small town, you can't avoid running into each other. Especially as Miles stops by for a pumpkin spice latte at the Maple Mug every day and Piper just can't stop thinking about the reclusive farmer.

Amid the scent of coffee and pastries, golden maple leaves, and crises big and small on Maple Lane, Piper slowly rediscovers what it feels like to belong. And that Miles might not be such a big problem after all, maybe he's even her chance at a fresh start …



This feel-good love story full of sweet cake, hilarious banter and absolute romantic chaos welcomes you to picturesque Maplewood, where small shops draw you in, new dreams take root, and there's plenty of sparks in every season – for readers who can't get enough of Laurie Gilmore and Harper Graham.
