Love is the sweetest spice of all.

A fiery, coffee-loving city girl. A laid-back handyman with irresistible hazel eyes. Is this a recipe for disaster? Find out in this totally cozy and unputdownable enemies-to-lovers romance in the small town of your dreams! Gilmore Girls + spice + everything autumn = 🔥

Self-confessed coffee addict and food writer Madison has convinced herself she belongs in NYC. But then she’s called back to the small town of Maple Falls to save her childhood home, The Cinnamon Spice Inn. She’s NOT looking forward to seeing her ex, Zach—now a sexy handyman who knows exactly how to push her buttons. But she won’t let anything distract her from the inn’s relaunch… right?

Zach is frustrated in more ways than one when his latest job brings him face-to-face with the girl who got away. He’s already agreed to renovate her family’s inn and he’s nothing if not a man of his word. But the last thing he wants is to work side-by-side with that stubborn, infuriating—fine, totally gorgeous—red-head.

Sparks fly as they prepare for the big Halloween opening. Will Madison save The Cinnamon Spice Inn and have a second chance at love, or will it all go up in flames?

Grab your favourite spiced latte and settle in with this steamy romance, packed with small-town charm, scorching chemistry, and the perfect HEA. If you love Laurie Gilmore, Emily Henry, cozy autumn vibes and plenty of spice, this is perfect for you!

Oh what a book! I adored everything, it gave me all the warm fuzzies. It was like being wrapped in a wool blanket and being handed a pumpkin spiced latte.

The writing was so lush and descriptive, it felt like I could smell the spiced baked goods, feel the crisp autumn air with the sun on my face. I got so immersed in the vibes.

This was a second chance
romance done right! It's very easy to get that wrong, but in my opinion this was done very well, it had just the right amount of angst and longing.

Even though this is a romance book, it also focused on family and community, and pulling together to save a most beloved inn.

Maple Falls you have my whole heart and I just wish you were a real place so I could visit.

Thank you to the publishers and Netgalley for the ARC in exchange for my honest review.

This book gave me all the cozy fall feelings I didn’t know I needed. Everything felt warm and soft, from the small town vibes to the slow romance. Madison and Zach had great chemistry, and I really enjoyed how they found their way back to each other. The atmosphere was amazing, like I could almost smell cinnamon, apples, and leaves while reading. The town was full of charm and lovely side characters, and I truly wanted to be part of their little world. The romance had just enough tension and sweetness, and even with some miscommunication moments, the story felt honest and heartfelt. It was the kind of book that made me smile the whole time. Thank you so much to the author and Netgalley for giving me the opportunity to read the book in advance, I received this for free and I'm leaving an honest review.

Enemies to lovers? ✔️
Childhood inn to save? ✔️
Fall leaves, coffee dates, and major tension? 🔥✔️

This book is like a cinnamon latte for your soul—warm, spicy, and totally addictive. Madison and Zach are perfection: she’s a fiery food writer with something to prove, he’s a grumpy handyman with hazel eyes and a whole lot of history. Their banter? Unhinged. Their chemistry? Off the charts. The vibes? Straight-up Gilmore Girls meets steamy Hallmark.

If you’re craving:
🍂 Cozy small-town charm
☕ Coffee shop sass
💋 Second chance tension
🎃 A Halloween HEA

Then this one belongs at the top of your fall TBR. I couldn’t put it down. And yes—I definitely want to book a room at The Cinnamon Spice Inn.

This book, was an absolutely favourite of mine! Really cozy, autumnal vibes. Exactly what I was looking for, like the gorgeous hallmark type movies in book form. Cannot wait for the rest that will follow in this series! Really romantic and I was rooting for Maddie the whole way through .
