A wounded teacher. A village baker. A Christmas neither of them will forget.
When burnt-out teacher Dominic Byrne rents a cottage in Hollywick, a remote West Country village, he wants only peace, and distance from London and the life that nearly broke him. What he didn’t bargain for was the neighbour with warm brown eyes, an instinct for caretaking, and a habit of turning up on his doorstep with freshly baked bread.
Olly Hansen knows all about starting over. Back in Hollywick and running the family bakery after a high-pressure career in London’s restaurant world, he’s built a life that is steady, local, and safe — until Dominic arrives, guarded, wounded, and impossible not to want.
As winter closes in and the village gives itself over to Christmas, what begins as care and kindness deepens into something neither man can dismiss. But with both their futures still shadowed by the lives they left behind, love may ask them for more than either is ready to give.
In a season of snow, healing, and second chances, two bruised hearts may just find their way home.
If you love small-town MM romance, hurt/comfort, neighbours-to-lovers tension, and food-as-love-language, All the Sweet Things was written for you.
