BAKING ME CRAZY, the first in the romantic comedy Donner Bakery Series of standalones, from Karla Sorensen is available now!
ABOUT THE BOOK
I'm Levi Buchanan, and until five years ago, I thought the legend of my family's curse was a load of crazy, Southern nonsense.
No curse can make you fall in love at first sight. No curse can force a true, deep, passionate, all-consuming love that will haunt you all the days of your life.
Then I met Jocelyn Abernathy and I realized how completely wrong I was.
The problem is, Jocelyn guards her feelings like well-armed soldier. She's the most beautiful, stubborn, infuriating woman I've ever met. Every time she talks, I want to kiss the living daylights out of her. But I can't.
Because when we met, she didn't need true love. She needed a best friend. And that's what I've been to her... for five years.
But when Jocelyn meets a handsome stranger her first day working at Donner Bakery and she lets him buy her a dill pickle cupcake, I realize with ominous regret that I may have missed my window with my best friend.
If I can't get her to see past our friendship, my new curse may be to watch the love of my life move on with someone else.
'Baking Me Crazy' is a full-length contemporary romantic comedy, can be read as a standalone, and is book#1 in the Donner Bakery series, Green Valley World, Penny Reid Book Universe.
MY THOUGHTS
BAKING ME CRAZY by Karla Sorensen is a delightful new
adult/coming of age novel that features an unrequited love that’s as equally
frustrating as it is inspiring. These best friends are close in so many ways
and a declaration of love means potentially losing the best friendship they
both have.
You’ve got to feel for Levi Buchanan. He’s been in love with
Jocelyn Abernathy since he met her five years ago, but he’s been firmly
friend-zoned. And thanks to the Buchanan Curse that asserts Buchanan males fall
in love once, and only once, Levi’s love life has been on hold ever since. If
that’s not enough, he’s struggling to find a job having just finished a
master’s degree. Let’s face it: Green Valley might be a great place to grow up
but it’s not abundant in specialised employment opportunities.
Jocelyn is also trapped, but in ways Levi can never
understand. She’s been a paraplegic since her mid-teens, and it’s only now that
she’s emerging from the fogginess of having to adapt to her condition that
she’s seriously starting to consider her professional future and dipping her
toes into romance.
My early twenties are just a distant view in the rear vision
mirror but I really enjoyed and could empathise with Levi’s and Jocelyn’s
feelings and the adult decisions they needed to make. There are some beautifully
touching moments between them and I wish we got more. There’s a reason why many
people say marrying their best friend is the best thing they ever did and I can
see Levi and Jocelyn firmly cementing their relationship as the years pass.

About Karla Sorensen
Karla Sorensen has been an avid reader her entire life, preferring stories with a happily-ever-after over just about any other kind. And considering she has an entire line item in her budget for books, she realized it might just be cheaper to write her own stories. It doesn’t take much to keep her happy…a book, a really big glass of wine, and at least thirty minutes of complete silence every day. She still keeps her toes in the world of health care marketing, where she made her living pre-babies. Now she stays home, writing and mommy-ing full time (this translates to almost every day being a ‘pajama day’ at the Sorensen household…don’t judge). She lives in West Michigan with her husband, two exceptionally adorable sons and big, shaggy rescue dog.
