Melody Johansson tries to find the positive in every situation.
However, seven years after she moved to Denver, she feels like she is
stuck in a rut. She is a classically trained baker and pastry chef but,
she is currently working in a mediocre chain bakery. Her love life has
stalled after a string of disastrous relationships. When the handsome
and charming pilot Justin Keller knocks on her door during a snowstorm,
Melody finally feels her luck might be changing.
Justin
is impressed by Melody and her positivity. However, the last thing he
wants is a relationship after his own romantic failures. He feels his
job is demanding and stressful to have meaningful relationships and
connections. Plus, he plans on moving across the country to Florida with
his sister and brother-in-law.
Justin and Melody
against better judgment decide to give their budding relationship a try.
They find themselves bonding over their career choices and shared love
of adventure. When
Melody suddenly comes into a windfall she realizes she can finally live
out her dream of opening her own bakery-cafe with her best friend.
However, she finds herself stuck with an impossible choice. Should she
give up her dreams of owning her own store or give up her chance at
love?
This was the second novel in "The Saturday
Night Supper Club" series but, I found each novel could be read as
standalone. This novel focuses on Melody and her journey to accomplish
her dreams and finding love. I enjoyed Melody and Justin's search to
balance their love life and dreams but, found it to be a bit slow in
some parts. Overall, a solid second novel to the series.

Baker and pastry chef Melody Johansson has always believed in finding the positive in every situation, but seven years after she moved to Denver, she can’t deny that she’s stuck in a rut. One relationship after another has ended in disaster, and her classical French training is being wasted on her night job in a mediocre chain bakery. Then the charming and handsome private pilot Justin Keller lands on the doorstep of her workplace in a snowstorm, and Melody feels like it’s a sign that her luck is finally turning around.
Justin is intrigued by the lively bohemian baker, but the last thing he’s looking for is a relationship. His own romantic failures have proven that the demands of his job are incompatible with meaningful connections, and he’s already pledged his life savings to a new business venture across the country—an island air charter in Florida with his sister and brother-in-law.
Against their better judgment, Melody and Justin find themselves drawn together by their unconventional career choices and shared love of adventure. But when an unexpected windfall provides Melody with the chance to open her dream bakery-café in Denver with her best friend, chef Rachel Bishop, she’s faced with an impossible choice: stay and put down roots with the people and place she’s come to call home . . . or give it all up for the man she loves.
