Playing Her Heart

About The Book

A standalone novella set in the French Connection series universe
A retired rockstar. A fiercely focused baker. One small town, and one big chance at love.
After two decades of fame, touring, and the relentless rhythm of rock ‘n’ roll, Jess Hill finally hits pause. She’s traded sold-out arenas for the quiet charm of her English hometown, searching for purpose beyond the stage lights.
She’s not expecting temptation to arrive in the form of a gorgeous French pâtissier with flour-dusted curves and no time for distractions.
Louise Vasseur is laser-focused on making her new patisserie a success—without family money, shortcuts, or complicated entanglements. But when Jess walks into her bakery, the sexy, soft-hearted rockstar is impossible to ignore.
As passion sizzles between kitchen counters and stolen kisses, both women find themselves stirred by something they didn’t plan for—and aren’t sure they’re ready to face.
Louise’s goals are rigid. Jess’s future is uncertain. And love? It wasn’t part of the recipe.
Playing Her Heart is a standalone sapphic novella full of sweetness, steam, and slow-burn charm. Perfect for fans of small town romance, opposites attract, and women discovering what (and who) truly makes them whole.
