This summer, two local cafes will go head-to-head in a baking competition where more is at stake than just the trophy... Will true love be the icing on the cake? ---- Clem is the baker in charge of creating delicious cat-themed treats for the loyal customers of the Catpurrcino cat café. From iced kitten doughnuts to macarons with ears and whiskers, Clem's creations always bring a smile to the face of anyone lucky enough to taste them. But outside of the café's kitchen, Clem struggles with feelings of anxiety and where she fits in. Until Sylvie, the owner of the café, decides to push her out of her comfort zone. The Whisked Away baking competition is a chance for Clem to shine and find her inner confidence.

But as Clem stumbles in the first challenge, Lucas always seems to be there with an encouraging word and a smile. The chemistry between them is soon undeniable. Is this just the heat in the kitchen? Or something real? And can their feelings survive a showdown in the final round... The most delightful read to curl up with and enjoy with a cup of tea and slice of cake! Fans of The Pumpkin Spice Café, Elsie Silver and Ali Hazelwood will adore this charming, romantic (and delicious!) story. ---- ---- ---- ---- ---- ---- ---- ---- ---- ---- ---- Tropes ----Rivals ----Slow burn ----Opposites attract ----Small town Readers are falling in love with Cake Off at the Cat Café: 'This book is like the perfect pastry; warm, sweet, and filled with layers of charm and slow-burning romance...
