The Sweet Spot, a sweet 4.5-Star Novella Length Read!
This was the first time reading a story written by Cassie Cross & if it’s any indication of what’s to come, it most definitely won’t be the last. For a novella length read, I was quite surprised how much character development the author included being it wasn’t a long read. It’s a feat few authors have been able to perfect & one Cassie Cross should be commended on. The book is short but packs a punch by being a quick, fun, flirty, humorous while also bringing enough heat to make it an all around amazing read! It serves as a reminder to not focus on one thing in their life, not have a single minded focus to the detriment of everything else. Definitely recommend The Sweet Spot.
While I did receive an ARC from the author via BookSprout, I am volantarily leaving my own opinion with this voluntary, unsolicited review.
First book that I have read from this author and it won’t be the last. Loved this story. Hunter and Lexi were so cute together. They had crushes on each other back in school but neither acted on it. So much fun watching them get together. No real outside drama. I can’t wait to read more from this author.

You can’t go wrong with romance story that is centered around a bakery. You can’t help but like, or love, the characters and the story line is well written so it pulls you in and holds you until the end. There’s plenty of romance to make you swoon and the right amount of humor needed to add in the comedy ingredient. A great start to a new series and a new to me author!

If you’re looking for a short & sweet read then The Sweet Spot should be added to the top of your list!
I had to read this one because Lexie owns a bakery. I’m always a sucker for a character that bakes. This is a fast read that I gobbled right up. I loved Lexie and Hunter. They were adorable together. This book has plenty of heart and humor. I could feel what Lexie was with her work load because I’ve done that a time or two myself in baking. I’m really looking forward to the next book in the series.
The Sweet Spot is the first book by this author that I have read, and I loved reading this first in the Love Is series. Lexi and Hunter have danced around each other since high school, and now it seems their time is here. Hunter seeing what is happening to Lexi intervenes and shows her she can have her dream of a successful bakery and a life. I love reading their story and look forward to reading the next book in the series.
Cuddle up with a sexy treat that will keep you on your toes. The Sweet Spot never misses it’s mark. Lexie and Hunter wrap themselves around hearts everywhere. With laughs and emotion, Cross entices readers to discover an addiction that is calorie free and smile inducing perfection.
