With a thriving bakery to run, she has no space for a love life and all its complications. Besides, the last time she opened up for love, it left her broke and broken.
When the past comes barging in, she turns to her best friend Ruffin to help her out of this sticky situation.
But one kiss is all it takes to revive feelings she thought were way past their expiration date.
Ruffin Wilder is doing fine all on his own.
Now if he could just convince his meddling family of that. After rescuing his best friend Willow from a run-in with her skeevy ex, he whips up a plan to help them both out.
It involves rednecks, fireworks, and a lot of lying. But he’s a firefighter; he takes the heat for a living.
Fake dating should a piece of cake, right?
Piece of Cake is a sweet, standalone romance with a dash of laughs and a heaping helping of small-town Southern sass.

When your hot firefighter best friend asks you to be his fake girlfriend, what could possibly go wrong?
Willow and Ruffin have been best friends for years, ever since a disastrous first (and last) date between them.
Things were just fine until Willow’s ex began harassing her, and Ruffin’s family pressured him to jump back in the dating pool.
They agree to fake date for a few weeks, so long as no one catches feelings for the other. Should be a piece of cake. But it’s anything but.
The story is sweet with a few kisses that will scorch your kindle. Closed-door, emotional and funny wholesome romance, with a few triggers. (See book description.) A cast of meddling neighbors and a goat that tries to steal every scene she’s in.
The third book in the Midnight Bluff series is Susan Farris’ best one yet!
I received an advance copy of this book from the publisher.
I am thrilled to have Willow and Ruffin's story out in the world! This friends-to-lovers, fake dating story just burned me up until I got it all down on paper. There is an adorable pygmy goat, meddling family, and more than a few fireworks ;) I hope you enjoy seeing this crazy, cozy side of Midnight Bluff as much as I enjoyed writing it.
