Bookseller recommendation
“This book that riffs off The Great British Bake Off was absolutely delightful - I want to try some of the recipes that are in this! This story mixes personal growth and a budding romance in a laugh-out-loud funny way while also dealing with serious issues that people face....Although the romance in this book is sweet and on the light side of things as far as romance books go, it was perfect for this story because Paris needed to work on himself and accept who he is before truly committing to a relationship. After all, love and a relationship take effort from both sides to make it work. I thought this was a wonderful and refreshing book. I listened to the audio on Libro.fm and enjoyed being swept away to the set of Bake Expectations. I definitely intend to make some of the recipes included in a PDF with the audiobook!”
— Anna Rose • The Well-Read Moose
From the bestselling author of Boyfriend Material comes a sweet and scrumptious romantic comedy about facing your insecurities, finding love, and baking it off, no matter what people say.
Paris Daillencourt is a recipe for disaster. Despite his passion for baking, his cat, and his classics degree, constant self-doubt and second-guessing have left him a curdled, directionless mess. So when his roommate enters him in Bake Expectations, the nation’s favourite baking show, Paris is sure he’ll be the first one sent home.
But not only does he win week one’s challenge—he meets fellow contestant Tariq Hassan. Sure, he’s the competition, but he’s also cute and kind, with more confidence than Paris could ever hope to have. Still, neither his growing romance with Tariq nor his own impressive bakes can keep Paris’s fear of failure from spoiling his happiness. And when the show’s vicious fanbase confirms his worst anxieties, Paris’s confidence is torn apart quicker than tear-and-share bread.
But if Paris can find the strength to face his past, his future, and the chorus of hecklers that live in his brain, he’ll realize it’s the sweet things in life that he really deserves.
Alexis Hall lives in a little house in the south east of England where he writes books about people who bake far better than he does. He can, however, whip up a passable brownie if pressed.
