Holy Grounds runs on two things: the nutty, caramel scent of coffee and Sebastien Davenport’s beloved cranberry-gingerbread muffins.
When the pastry chef collapses days before Christmas, owner Bridgette Calloway faces an impossible morning rush and an even harder truth: the beloved chef she’s leaned on may need her more than ever.
When a frightening diagnosis upends Seb’s independence and he’s at his lowest, it’s his boss he finds himself calling. Perhaps she’s more than a boss after all… Bridgette shows up with a Bible, Chinese takeout, and the solid courage he didn’t know he needed. In the hush of winter and a kitchen dusted with flour and light, their friendship warms into something deeper. But fear, pride, and new limitations could cost them more than a holiday menu.
As carols ring and candlelight glows, Bridgette and Seb are thrust into uncharted territory and must make a choice. Will they retreat into safety, or put their trust in the God who writes love stories in unexpected places like a coffee sleeve, a baker’s bench, and prayer whispered over racks of cooling pastries?
Perfect for fans of:
When the tops of Bridgette's muffins come out looking like mountains, she is ready to cry. Without Sebastien, nothing was going right at the Holy Grounds coffee shop. Then Sebastien calls her from his hospital bed and the relationship they had changes. I could almost smell the coffee and the baking muffins in this warm, sweet romance involving two people willing to trust in God.
Bridgette Calloway, Holy Grounds proprietor, and pastry chef Sebastien Davenport face his new diagnosis of adult-onset epilepsy. They love one another but the other believes they are “just” good friends and coworkers. Bridgette surprises him with an at home dinner following his hospital stay. She tells him how she feels. Seb finds her beautiful. Everything about her is alive. No way could he saddle her with his ill self. They’d already revoked his driver’s license. And then he seizes. She cares for him but accepts it as a lonely onlooker. The next day he bakes her a favored cheesecake with a diamond ring on top. It’s made with a secret ingredient that seals this story with a sweet HEA. I received an ARC of this story in exchange for my own thoughts.
