About this listen

By #1 New York Times and Sunday Times bestselling author of The Pumpkin Spice Cafe

Every book in the Dream Harbor series can be enjoyed as a standalone.

When a secret message turns up hidden in a book in the Cinnamon Bun Bookstore, Hazel can't understand it. As more secret codes appear between the pages, she decides to follow the trail of clues… she just needs someone to help her out.

Gorgeous and outgoing fisherman, Noah, is always up for an adventure. And a scavenger hunt sounds like a lot of fun. Even better that the cute bookseller he's been crushing on for months is the one who wants his help!

Hazel didn’t go looking for romance, but as the treasure hunt leads her and Noah around Dream Harbor, their undeniable chemistry might be just as hot as the fresh-out-of-the-oven cinnamon buns the bookstore sells…

The Cinnamon Bun Book Store is a Sunday Times and USA Today bestselling cozy romantic mystery with a HEA guaranteed!

Tropes:

  • opposites attract
  • small town
  • forced proximity
  • he falls first

Almost the same

Again I did enjoy this book, the vibes and aesthetic, I feel that the way it’s written it’s made for children until it’s quite evidently not. I don’t know anyone who says ‘has the hots for’ and that made me cringe a few times that it cropped up.
The book also seemed to move extremely fast. Even though you can read it as a standalone I feel if I hadn’t have read the pumpkin spice cafe first I would have just been thrust into the world and a little lost. You should 100% read them as a series and not standalone.

A Must-Listen Romance Escape

As a busy working mum, I don’t have much time to sit down and read, so I listen to audiobooks instead. I discovered Laurie Gilmore's books through social media recommendations, and after the first one, I was completely hooked! This second book is by far my favorite, and I’m already counting down the days until the next two release next year. If you’re looking for an engaging adult romance that offers a perfect escape, this is the book for you. Just a heads-up—it’s not suitable for little ears, so be sure to pop in your headphones if kids are nearby!

All the spice!

This being the second book in the Dream Harvour series I read it as a follow on form the PS Cafe. this could be read as a standalone book but was nice to have a recap on other characters. However, it contained lots of spicy elements which felt a little repetitive and this shifted from the small cosy town vibes. The cover suggests this is an autumnal season book however the most part take place in summer. The relationship between Noah and Hazle became slightly frustrating, although ended nice. I found this had alot of potential which was missed in regards of adding more of the small town vibes but overall enjoyable.

Loved it

Really enjoyed this follow up to the pumpkin spiced cafe. Even though the story evolves we keep an eye on the previous characters. Thoroughly enjoyed. Looking forward to Christmas tree farm

Fun and easy going

I read this straight after pumpkin spice cafe for a break and similar to the first book I found it fun and easy going. Not over complicated, probably not growing my brain but the kind of book you can listen to in the background and I was definately invested in the characters.

Cute autumn story

Cute autumn story, light hearted with a happy ending. Wish there was a tad more spice!
Not a fan of an older narrators voice for a 30 year old. Struggled to get past that.

Take A Chunk Out Of That Bun!

The second in the series from Laurie Gilmore, I discovered this series thanks to the silent reading party at Pier Road Coffee & Art in Littlehampton.
This book although not directly linked to the Pumpkin Cafe does have references to Dream Harbour it’s location and the characters, not important to have read it before this one.
Dream Harbour is a comfortable little town and a steamy version of Stars Hollow that is the home of The Gilmore Girls. This book is straight into the story no messing about and the characters are likeable and it’s a fun listen. Great narrator.
