The Ingredients of You and Me (Hopeless Romantics, #3)

by Nina Bocci

From the USA TODAY bestselling author of the “heartwarming and refreshingly sweet” (Lauren Layne, New York Times bestselling author) On the Corner of Love and Hate comes a story about a baker who takes her chances on a new town...and an old love.

After selling her famous bakery back in New York, Parker Adams visits Hope Lake, Pennsylvania, to figure out her next steps. And soon she’s wondering why she ever loved city life in the first place. Between the Golden Girls—the senior women who hold court—and Nick Arthur, her equally infuriating and charming former flame, Parker finds a community eager to help her get her mojo back.

But even though Hope Lake gives her the fresh start she’s been looking for, Parker discovers that it’s not so easy to start over again with Nick. Their chemistry is undeniable, but since Nick is a freshly taken man, Parker is determined to keep things platonic. With a recipe for disaster looming, Parker must cook up a new scheme, figuring out how to keep everything she’s come to love before she loses it all.

Perfect for fans of Amy E. Reichert and Jenny Colgan, The Ingredients of You and Me is a scrumptious romantic comedy that lets you have your cake and eat it too.

OMG, these two! I was so angry with Nick, but I guess I grew to understand why he did what he did. The whole situation was still tough, because I wanted these two to get together and for Parker to stay in Hope Lake forever. She was really becoming a part of the town, and I just loved when she spent time with her Golden Girls. If this is the last Hopeless Romantics, I can honestly say I am happy with the way things ended up for all the couples. It was a really fun series, and I enjoyed all the time I got to spend in Hope Lake.
