A big-city chef. A small-town single dad. And matchmakers with marriage in mind…

Chef Kara Lockwood didn’t think changing a small-town diner’s menu would cause a boycott, but the locals sure do love their apple pie — especially fire chief Will MacKenzie. Kara’s not sure she and the single father can ever learn to live peacefully as neighbours. But even as they clash over pastries, local matchmakers and Will’s little boy are determined to bring their stubborn hearts together.
