Summary

A closeted small-town florist and a too-busy-for-a-relationship bakery owner mix up the perfect recipe for love in this delicious lesbian romance novel.

Small-town florist Ashley Gaines loves her little flower shop and putting together the perfect bouquets for weddings and other happy occasions. Her own love life, however, is far from blossoming. Ash has decided that staying in the closet is safer than risking her heart again. 

Local bakery owner Sasha Peterson hasn't had much luck mixing it up with romance either. Besides, she's too busy whipping up delicious treats to have time for a relationship. But when their town's first lesbian wedding forces them to work together, Ashley and Sasha discover they have more in common than they imagined. 

During food fights, cake tastings, and slow waltzes, they begin to see each other in a new light. Soon Ashley has to admit to herself that Sasha is tempting more than just her sweet tooth. 

Contains mature themes.

Loved the slow burn of this story and, the great if somewhat young characters ...
I found the only drawback to be the usually good narration of AD (whom I felt got the voices switched around) - would have given the 6ft woman the lower pitched voice rather than the petite one... just my POV

Jae's books always leave me feeling warm, nourished and hopeful. I also learn new things which is always a win! 💜🔥

Ash and Sasha's journey is written with so much care, tenderness, patience and humour! Each scene had me wanting to know more about them. Sizzling slow burn but not too predictable. Loved the banter between their friend group and how they supported each other. This book is fairly low angst which works for me.

I think this could be listened to as a stand alone, but reading 'Perfect Rhythm' first will provide a foundation for Not the Marrying Kind. 💍

I will listen to this again for sure, and can't wait to read more from Jae! Angela Dawe's narration is flawless as per. 💚

Jae strikes again! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

As always, I loved the story. Thank you Jae for writing another brilliant book.

Angela Dawe is my favourite narrator so I really hate to say it but I just couldn’t get used to Sacha’s voice, I couldn’t reconcile the tone of her voice with how her character is described. I have to give it to Ms Dawe she maintained the voice that she used for Sacha when she was a supporting character in the first Fairoaks book, which doesn’t always happen when a supporting character becomes a main character in a later book in the series.

Loved the story
