About this listen
Performed in duet by Samantha Brentmoor and Teddy Hamilton!
Everyone knows the golden rule of business—don’t bang your business partner.
Especially if he’s your brother’s hot-as-sin, hockey-star best friend.
But when the sexy single dad athlete saves me from a cake contest catastrophe—and shows me how good he is with his hands—I blurt out the world’s worst business pitch: Want to invest in my bakery?
With no loan or backup plan, this is my last shot at proving I’m more than my past mistakes, and shockingly, he says yes.
We set one rule: don’t mix business with pleasure.
Except Corbin Knight’s impossible to resist.
When he’s not scoring goals, he’s staying up late with me to test tempting recipes.
Braiding my hair before we bake like it’s foreplay.
Giving me his jersey to wear to games.
I try to keep a professional distance from the bossy, possessive and dangerously flirty hockey player, but soon we’re testing the limits of the kitchen counter.
This bakery is my chance to finally get my life right, so I fight the messy feelings.
Until one night, he shows up after closing and admits he can’t stop thinking about me.
Suddenly I’m ready to break every rule—no matter the cost to our dreams.
And breaking the rules has never tasted so good.
This exclusive special edition audiobook includes a cameo by James Joseph and a full reel of bloopers!
This is Corbin and Mabel's romance. Tropes include: Brother's best friend, single dad, workplace romance, hockey, the one who got away, love letters.

Mabel and Corbin are such a great couple and the smexy scenes are h000t 🔥🚒🚒🔥🧯👩🚒🔥❤️🔥🧑🚒. Their connection, personal and professional was deep but life threw its little spanners in the works as time went on, mixed with fight or flight instincts we see them grow so much.
I love how much thought is put into the concepts in the book, the characters “different” abilities and how they are overcome. Lauren Blakely’s books are always great Feel Good books.
Let’s talk narrators and how they bring the characters to life. Samantha Brentmoor as Mabel was incredible and really gave the hot mess not as messy as you think vibes. Teddy Hamilton as Corbin, smexy and seductive with so much adulting thrown in.
And thank you all for the bloopers and the cat and dogs included in the book. Pets are always a winner!
