After years of waiting to be promoted to pastry chef, bread baker Jackie Thorndike is instead left in charge of the entire bakery: the staff, the baking class and her ex-boyfriend the boss hired to fill in as bread baker.

Freshly fired from yet another baking job, Mark Zutka gets the bread baking job at Jam Bakery. There's only three problems: it's temporary, there aren't any benefits and most importantly, he has to work with Jackie "The Thorn" Thorndike again.

The former lovers tango inside and outside the kitchen as they try to work together despite the event that wedged between them eight years ago and broke their relationship.

Can Jackie prove her innocence to Mark and win the job of her dreams?
Can Mark pull himself together and turn this into a permanent job?
Can Jackie and Mark forgive each other and let love rise again?
