Welcome to Cupid’s Sweet Shoppe!
There’s something magical about a fresh start, isn’t there? New year, new stories, new small-town adventures all still to come. Today, I finally get to share a project I’ve been quietly (and joyfully!) building behind the scenes.
It’s cover reveal day for Sweet Dreams, the first book in my brand-new Cupid’s Sweet Shoppe series set in Ashford Falls!
I’m completely smitten with this cover. I love the colors, the energy, the soft bakery charm. It captures exactly what I want this new series to feel like: comforting, hopeful, sweet but not syrupy romance with a big helping of small-town charm.
Feel free to tell me your favorite detail. Is it the pastel palette? The twinkle lights? The hint of flour-dusted romance? I love hearing what readers notice!
Cover for Sweet Dreams, first in the Cupid’s Sweet Shoppe series
Welcome back to Ashford Falls, where the coffee is hot, the cinnamon rolls are legendary, and love has a way of sneaking up when you least expect it.
Meet Ivy Baker, a widow who’s convinced her heart is safer behind the counter of a bakery than in anyone’s hands. So when her little sister, Joy, begs her to come home and open a bakery beside Cupid’s Coffeeshop, Ivy says yes, even though she’s not sure she’s ready for a new beginning.
Enter Nathaniel Knight, firefighter, small-town contractor, and certified good guy. He can rebuild a porch, rescue a kitten, or install a bakery oven without breaking a sweat, but healing his own heart has been a much harder job.
When Ivy hires Nate to renovate the new bakery, sparks start flying in warm, sweet, cinnamon-scented ways. And as Ashford Falls works its magic, Ivy begins to wonder if the sweetest dreams really do rise again.
If you love:
✨ second-chance healing
✨ cozy bakery vibes
✨ firefighter heroes
✨ gentle slow-burn swoon
Then Cupid’s Sweet Shoppe will be your new happy place.
Sweet Dreams arrives March 3, 2026, and I cannot wait to share Ivy and Nathaniel with you. They have already completely stolen my heart, and I hope they’ll steal yours, too. Sweet Dreams is already available for preorder now!
More sneak peeks, character spotlights, and behind-the-scenes stories are coming your way as we get closer to release!
