Good Southern Women Book 1: Sweet as Pie.
How will they find a future together when she can\'t say no and he can\'t say yes? The path to true love isn\'t quite easy as pie, but it sure is Sweet in the end.
Not to mention what a fool he was to let Evie get away...
Between slices of Mississippi mud pie and chicken potpie, he\'s starting to remember all the good times they had and the man he always intended to be.
But he\'s happy to reconnect with a piece of home when he visits Evie.
After a disastrous year, the hockey hotshot is leaving his past behind--even betting his best friend that he can stay away from women.
So why can\'t she stop baking for him? Jake is looking forward to a new team, a new Town and a clean slate in Laurel Springs.
Of course, she\'ll forgive him like the good Southern woman she is, but anything more than that is off the table.
When he comes to her Small Town in Alabama with a new pro hockey franchise, Evie fears she\'ll lose her heart all over again.
But Jake chose her beauty queen cousin three years ago and ghosted on their close friendship.
To her overbearing Mississippi Delta family, to her business mentor\'s push to expand her thriving pie shop and to her lifelong crush, Jake Champagne.
