My first book from Samhain Publishing was a fun, naughty little title, Pink Buttercream Frosting. The title alone garnered quite a bit of publicity. It's catchy, cute… In the book, the heroine, Bailey is a divorced baker who's opened a small bakery on the bottom floor of her work/live townhouse. One of the things she's [...]
