The Cupcake Conundrum
Lesbian Workplace Romance
by Rey Luca
When Luna tapes the help wanted sign to the front window of her cozy cafe, she imagines the perfect candidate will walk through the door—someone with years of experience, a warm personality, and a knack for crafting mouth watering pastries. What she doesn’t anticipate is finding herself face-to-face with Scarlett, an awkward, introverted former actuary who admits she’s never worked in a kitchen before.
What Luna absolutely doesn’t see coming, though, is that this unlikely pastry chef will end up completely turning her world upside down in the best way possible. Falling for her was never part of the plan, but sometimes, life has sweeter surprises than anything she could have baked up herself.
REVIEW
5 out of 5
This was such a sweet, cute, workplace romance, and I’m not referring to the pastries! I will admit, the story starts off a little bleak, with things not looking great for the bakery or Scarlett – but it seems that it might have been the invisible hand of fate that brought Scarlett to Lulu’s bakery! I loved getting to know both of them, and seeing the friendship and romance unfold between them. The descriptions of the pastries are enough to get your stomach growling, and the characters will get your heart feeling warm and full. The story moves at a smooth but somewhat slower pace, but is an enjoyable read from cover to cover. Highly recommend for sweet, sapphic romance lovers!
