Then she meets Kennedy, a hunky firefighter whose killer smile and easy charm makes her heart pound. But with the kind of danger he faces on the job each day, Abby knows there’s no happily-ever-after in the cards. The harder she tries to hold onto her heart, the faster it seems to slip away, but when a series of mysterious events threaten the future of her business and her life, their happiness may be shorter-lived than she realized. Someone is out to get her, and it’s up to Abby and Kennedy to uncover who’s behind the destruction. Can they do it before tragedy strikes?

Abby had finally gotten what she truly wanted.  She was about to open her bakery and fulfill her dream.
Abby had just open her Bakery and one of her first patience just so happens to be one of the most gorgeous men she had ever seen. Her sisters was always trying to set her up week after week, dinner and dinner. It was always the same and she was never interested in those potential matches. Imagine her surprise when she shows up at her sisters force yet another match made by her sister to find the man from the bakery. Kennedy AKA Ken, oh and did I mention he was a fireman?   Yummy. They hit it off and one date led to another. Things begin to happen at the bakery without any explanation. A burning left on, the alarm turned off. Oh and Dex, Abby's friend was attacked in the kitchen.  It is all a puzzle, something that threatens the business Abby was trying to build. Suspenseful, alluring.
The ending felt a little rushed. I was hoping for a little more but it was as if it was just wrapped up and then gone.
