The Cookie Match

She stopped following her dreams. He left his behind. But not all cookies crumble.



At school Ava and Max were best friends forever, until he left town and inherited some money. A lot of money.



He's back now with a fancy office and busy planning a huge charity event. Ava still lives with her grandma and works at the local coffee shop. When a meddling matchmaker engineers their reunion, it doesn't take long for old feelings to resurface.



With Max's encouragement, Ava finally makes some tentative steps toward her lifelong dream of making cookies for a living. She's helping cater the charity event and is terrified to mess up this opportunity. He believes she can accomplish anything she sets her mind to and his trust begins to rub off on her.



But despite their growing relationship, the differences between them might be too much to overcome. Max's money and Ava's frugal lifestyle is one. And his refusal to forgive his mom for a childhood lie is another. As the event looms, the pressures rise and only a miracle will stop a disaster. Or at least, more matchmaking.



Starting over and taking chances, in a clean and sweet contemporary romance with a heartwarming happy ever after.
