David, however, is newly out and single, still grieving the loss of his longtime lover, and … grieving the loss of his longtime lover, and unsure if he’s ready to date again. Even though things soon heat up for these two, there’s still a chance someone could get burned . . .
Baked Fresh
Vic Degrassi is a baker on the rise who goes after what he wants and gets it, whether it’s losing weight, giving up smoking, or graduating from culinary school. This year he wants Robin Dawson, the sweet-hearted hottie who volunteers with him at the local homeless shelter. Robin is suddenly single after being unceremoniously dumped, and Vic is more than happy to offer a shoulder to cry on or something hot and fresh to savor . . .
Delivered Fast
Chris O’Neal has problems. His restaurant is still co-owned by his ex. He can’t remember the last time he had fun. And then there’s the hot bakery delivery boy with his sculpted good looks. Lance Degrassi is still in college and preparing for grad school. He should be hitting the books, chasing guys his own age, and not pursuing some gruff motorcycle-riding workaholic. But Lance keeps hanging around Chris, who just might have to indulge himself with something sweet . . .

Served Hot #1
Very nicely done. I enjoyed the characters and storyline. The little bit of push and pull these two go through isn’t overdone. I liked that when they appear to be stuck in a bad place Robby demands more and is willing to say what he needs. David has some serious issues but keeps reaching for Robby. I liked that instead of leaving things broken between them David comes back to Robby and opens up.
Served Fresh #2
I seriously loved this second book in the series. It isn’t all sunshine and roses but it is wonderful. Both Robin and Vic are full of self-doubt and depredation. Neither can believe they are really worthy of love and happiness, but boy can they see it in the other. I love that Robin would’ve fallen for Vic even before his surgery and weight loss and that Vic wanted Robin despite his past. The very things that were holding these two in fear were non-issues for the other. I was impressed that while Vic didn’t think he had the perfect words to take Robin’s pain and doubt away, his honest, heartfelt confession was. Just freakin’ fantastic.
Delivered Fast #3
Loved it! This May to December romance was a treat. Lance and Chris start out with a flirtation that leads to a fling that instantly changes to a friends with more relationship, but it becomes so much more. No matter how much Chris tries to keep his heart closed off, no matter how he wants Lance to have a life full of what he imagines Lance deserves he can’t help falling completely. Lance is so young and yet he impresses me with his maturity. He knows what he wants and it’s Chris and only Chris.
Highly recommended author and series
This is a bundle of the first three books in the Portland Heat series. While the stories can be read alone, they are so much better when you read them in order. In Served Hot, the first story, we meet David and Robby. David is still grieving the death of his old best friend and lover. Robby is dealing with the fears left over from his ex. They both need to learn to trust if they want a future. In Baked Fresh Vic works at a bakery that donated to the shelter. Robin volunteers at the shelter. Vic has had a crush on Robin for two years. Robin is recently single. Both have a lot of emotional damage but decide to be friends with benefits. But what happens when love is involved? Delivered Fresh has 23 year old Lance. He is a sexy college student who works doing deliveries at the bakery his cousin Vic works at. Chris is 35 and owns a coffee shop with his ex. He is sure that he is way too old for Lance. They start with a one night stand that turns into a fling that is supposed to end when Lance goes away to college. They both fall hard. Chris has to decide whether to let Lance go to Chase his dream or see if they can find a future together. All three books were great love stories with true emotional depth. I highly recommend them and look forward to reading more from this author.
I really enjoyed the stories and have since become a very big fan of this author.
Great read, I actually bought all the books in the series. I give them all 5 start. Very entertaining. A good ever after, steamy romantic, and I love the characters!! All of them!!
