About this listen
A heartwarming small-town romance about finding love in unexpected places.
The Rustic Spoon is my family’s legacy, and I’m watching it slip away. Despite my best efforts, the bills keep piling up, and customers are becoming scarce.
Then Henry Jameson walks in—celebrity chef, hometown success story, and my childhood tormentor. He’s back in Birch Springs scouting locations for his own restaurant, and he has his eye on my building.
I’d rather see the diner burn to the ground than sell it to him.
Just as I’m about to lose everything, Henry offers an unexpected lifeline: a business partnership. Working alongside him stirs feelings I never anticipated—feelings I fight with every breath.
As the diner begins to thrive, the walls around my heart crumble. Yet opening myself to Henry feels terrifying. His life belongs in the spotlight, not in our small town.
With every shared smile and brushed fingertip, the professional lines that once separated us begin to fade away. I’m left wondering if the diner is the only thing I’m afraid of losing.

Story
Sloane House is among the most gilded mansions of Gilded Age Chicago. Rosalind Perry, the new housemaid, pours the morning coffee before the hard gaze of her mistress. “It’s simple, Rosalind,” she says. “I am Veronica Sloane, heiress to one of the country’s greatest fortunes. You are simply one in a long line of unsuitable maids.” Back on the farm in Wisconsin, Rosalind’s plan had seemed logical: Move to Chicago. Get hired on at Sloane House. Discover what transpired while her sister worked as a maid there - and follow the clues to why she disappeared.

Story
Harper Taylor is used to being alone - after all, she grew up in one foster home after another. Oliver Jackson finally took her under his wing when she was a runaway teenager. But she’s never stopped wishing for a family of her own. So when a DNA test reveals a half-sister living just two hours away, Harper is both hopeful and nervous. Over warm cinnamon rolls, Harper and Annabelle find striking similarities in their stories. Is it just a coincidence that both their mothers died tragically, without revealing Harper and Annabelle’s father’s name?
