Luke owns the town's pub. Luke is attracted to Rachael, but his cousin Sam is also very attracted to Rachael. Because both cousins like Rachael, this is causing a big problem in the family. One day Rachael up and disappears, not telling anyone where she is going. Luke asked his future brother in law Jayce, to try and track her down.
Little did Luke know what Jayce would come up with. Rachael is not her name; her real name is Raegan, daughter of a famous movie star. That's not all she is also a millionaire. Luke heads to Bel Air, CA. to find out why she would lied to everyone who cared about her. Once there of course the sparks fly, and one thing leads to another.
Beth Ciotta is a very entertaining writer. Some of the story line is predictable, but after reading so many romance novels, I can guess what is going to happen. This did not however, keep me from enjoying ANYTHING BUT LOVE.
Once again, at the back of the book are some of the recipes that the Cupcake Lovers Club makes in the book. This is another item that I enjoy when I read books that have to do with cooking or baking. I do love to try and make some of the recipes that they describe.
Book Summary
For Reagan Deveraux, Sugar Creek, Vermont, and the Cupcake Lovers are a dream come true: A cozy little town where family and friends come before everything else. She’s never experienced anything like it—especially not growing up with her mother, a fickle, fame-hungry heiress. But Rae’s plan to hide out in anonymity for a year until she can claim her inheritance—and her independence—changes with one kiss from gorgeous pub owner Luke Monroe.
Luke’s charm is legendary, but he’s never been a one-woman man. Until Rae captures his attention, that is, and then disappears. With a little help from a friend, Luke tracks her down—and unearths secrets almost too wild to be true, as well as the fact that Rae lied to him, and to all of Sugar Creek. Luke’s not sure if he can forgive her, but he definitely can’t forget her, and when she returns to save the Cupcake Lovers from disaster, he knows it’s his chance to get the truth—and get the girl, this time for good…
Anything But Love is the third Cupcake Lovers novel from Beth Ciotta.
