Griffin

I came to Whispers to start over. Just me, my baby, and a bakery that smells like second chances. No more judgmental glances. No more family who treated me like a stain they couldn't scrub out. Just flour, sugar, and the quiet hope that I can build a life worth living. I didn't expect to meet Griffin. Grumpy, gorgeous, and maddeningly closed off, he's the town's most elusive billionaire and the man who built homes for the rich but never made one for himself. He sees me. Not just the bump or the baggage, but the woman underneath. And when he looks at me like I'm the only thing that's ever made sense, I forget how to breathe. But trust isn't something I can afford. My past has taught me to be wary of everyone. Even if the grumpy builder says he's ready to fight for something real. I just hope he knows what it costs.
