When Liz Talbot's husband left her for a woman half her age, Liz put all her passions into her bakery. The problem is that fad diets and fitness crazes are ruining sales and she's barely staying afloat. Liz's luck seems to be changing when her ex dies without changing his will, leaving her the main beneficiary. Unfortunately one of the things she inherits is the advertising agency she left behind to pursue her dream of baking. Her partner? The newly widowed husband stealer--Brandi, with a heart over the i. As the new co-owner of Talbot Advertising, in the toilet since the death of her ex (that's right, she's now the proprietor of two failing businesses), Liz is more determined than ever to break out and make a name for herself as an artisan baker extraordinaire, providing her products can catch the eye of the Nabisco Food scout who is as elusive as he is mysterious.

Light & entertaining... some parts even interesting....
I finished it, but I skimmed a whole lot of it.....
Liz is Ted's ex-wife. Brandi ( ♥ dotted i) is his widow: Ted screw's them all by leaving EVERYTHING, including the PR firm that Liz made successful to Liz...
Catch? Liz has to work w/ Brandi, who of course uses sex to get almost everything she wants....
This interferes w/ Liz's passion her bakery (There is No Cake in her bakery...so where the hell the title came from I have no clue). She bakes breads to die for, but she & the bakery are in a slump....
Ted's stupidity turns out to be exactly what Liz needs to get her passion stoked up again & her bakery back to where she wants it to be
Yes, of course there is romance, but that is well written in & not the main point, but a solid pushing forward point.
It is down 1 ★ because I had to skim so much of the beginning fluff.... (
