New Yorker, Magdalena Solis, is a city cynic to her core. But when she’s threatened by a thug who demands she pay her absent boyfriend’s debts, she flees to Green Valley, Tennessee. Bewildered by her rural surroundings, and harboring a serious aversion to beards and flannel, Mags is horrified when the first local she encounters is the scruffiest brute she’s ever seen.
Cy Baxter has a tortured past, a bad reputation, and facial hair like a tumbleweed in a dust storm.
With troubles of his own, Cy vows to keep clear of the rude stranger who does nothing but insult him. But he has a heart as big as the wide-open countryside, and when an adorable stray dog brings the two together, sparks fly in the most unexpected ways.
Desperate to pay off her pursuer, Mags starts work at the Donner Bakery. And as Cy becomes a regular customer, his sweet tooth turns into a longing for something spicier.
But with the relentless thug hot on Mags’ trail, can these city-meets-country misfits find common ground? Or will their love story be as impossible as square dancing in stilettos?
‘Muffin But Trouble’ is a full-length contemporary romance, can be read as a standalone, and is book #4 in the Donner Bakery series, Green Valley Chronicles, Penny Reid Book Universe.
Review:
4 Stars
I really enjoy the Donner Bakery series and I couldn't wait to read this one. Now I'm not gonna lie this book almost lost me in the beginning. I was not a fan of how Mags was treating Cy. Hang in there with characters because Mags won me back over after a bit. I mean I get it especially with why she is hiding out in Green Valley. I felt for Cy because he is nothing like is dad, but this town already has an opinion on the Baxter name. As Mags gets to know Cy even her own prejudices are unfounded because she sees the great guy underneath the exterior. As the saying goes don't judge a book by it's cover. Mags' stay in Green Valley is going a way she never anticipated, but the threat she is running from is not too far behind. Her ex is a real piece of work that I'm glad karma visited. This turned out to be such a great story. After a little bump for me I was sucked right into this one. The citizens of Green Valley didn't let me down. A great addition to the series.
