Synopsis
from Goodreads: Jack
left Sue when she was eighteen and no one else has even come close to
taking his place in her heart. Twenty five years later, Sue is busy
running the local bakery ‘Pat’s Pantry’, fighting off
competition from the fancy new bistro in the village and has no time
for romance.
After more than two decades away, Jack is finally returning to the village he grew up in. Seeing Sue rekindles all the feelings he thought were long buried. But will Sue forgive him for leaving? And what will happen when she finds out that his daughter runs the enemy bistro?
A short story from the author of the romantic comedies Girl On The Run and Girl Having A Ball. The perfect length for a lunchtime read.

My
thoughts: I
don't read a lot of short stories, but this quick read was an
enjoyable addition to my lazy Sunday morning. We're introduced first
to Sue, who owns and runs the same bakery she worked at as a
teenager, and then to Jack, the boy who left her behind to go to
university and never came back. Until today. I love the descriptions
of the small village and the Yorkshire roads and countryside. And
given the length of the story, the author does well with the
characterization. If you're looking for something short and sweet,
this should do it for you.
