◆ Strong heroine, weaker hero, and a sweet romance that turns conventions on their head
◆ Healing through food × business rivalries
◆ The icy CEO's tale of surrender × the gentle pastry chef's protective conquest
Yu Jin is renowned in the business world as an "iron-blooded CEO": cool, commanding, and unapproachable. By chance, a cake from a little shop on the corner touches her heart. It is exactly like the last birthday cake her mother made for her when she was a child.
Ji Chenyang runs the Morning Light pastry shop. His smile is warm enough to melt even the hardest chocolate. He has no idea that the "special customer" who shows up every day on the dot is Yu Jin, the formidable head of the Yu Group. He simply wants to use his desserts to soothe the weariness between her brows.
When Yu Jin discovers that the pastry shop happens to sit on a plot of land her group is acquiring, when Ji Chenyang recognizes her from the financial news, and when their rivals make a fuss over their relationship...
She must choose: defend the cold fortress she has spent years building, or embrace this unexpected warmth that has entered her life?
"Can you tell what's inside?" He pointed to the red streak in the middle of the cake.
"Strawberry jam."
"No," he said, gazing into her eyes. "It's the warmth of sunlight touching the first flower to bloom."
