From the author of the Sunday Times bestseller and viral TikTok phenomenon, The Pumpkin Spice Cafe, comes a brand new spicy romance set in Dream Harbor! When a secret message turns up hidden in a book in the Cinnamon Bun Bookstore, Hazel can't understand it. As more secret codes appear between the pages, she decides to follow the trail of clues… she just need someone to help her out. Gorgeous and outgoing fisherman, Noah, is always up for an adventure. And a scavenger hunt sounds like a lot of fun. Even better that the cute bookseller he's been crushing on for months is the one who wants his help! Hazel didn’t go looking for romance, but as the treasure hunt leads her and Noah around Dream Harbor, their undeniable chemistry might be just as hot as the fresh-out-of-the-oven cinnamon buns the bookstore sells…

    I was expecting a cute cosy read and it didn't hit the spot. I found it very cringe, the spicy scenes felt awkward. Didn't enjoy it overall

    I liked it better than the first one, mainly because there wasn't a silly break up but man this town really hates having honest conversations.

    What a great continuation of the Dream Harbor series! This book started and stayed good, which is a big improvement from The Pumpkin Spice Cafe. In all honesty, this is probably the most realistic romance I have read because the conflict was present throughout the book instead of popping up out of nowhere at the end just for the sake of having a conflict. The epilogue definitely threw me for a loop though. It seemed rushed and out of character for both characters. I kind of wish I didn’t read it 😬 but other than that it was a really good book!
