How to Write a Love Story
Same author's gentle, craft-and-secrets formula with a family mystery, but the hobby is writing romance and the crush arc is a slower burn.
Love, lies & lemon pies
Same cozy club-hobby structure and hidden family secret, just heavier: grief over a dead parent sits under the baking.
