After selling her successful bakery back in New York, Parker Powell decides to visit her best friend, Charlotte, in Hope Lake, Pennsylvania, to figure out her next steps. As she acquaints herself with the people in town, she begins to wonder why she ever loved city life in the first place. Between the Golden Girls (a.k.a. the senior citizen women who hold court), the response from the town to her sweet treats, and Nick Arthur, the ever-charming local owner of a landscaping business she spent time with during her last visit, Parker finds a community of cheerleaders who encourage her to get her baking mojo back. At first, everything is great-she collaborates with the Golden Girls to put new twists on traditional confections, and thanks to Nick's advice, she quickly learns the stark differences between big city and small-town business practices.

With a recipe for disaster looming, Parker must cook up a new scheme, figuring out how to keep the bakery business-and man-she's come to love before she loses it all.
