About this listen

They call me the sugar whisperer.

Anything your tongue desires, I can bake it. Scones? Child's play. Cupcakes? I'll frost them so good you won't know what hit you. Donuts? Please!

You're talking to a master baker.

But there's one egg I've never been able to crack.

My best friend.

Correction: my former best friend.

She's the apple in my pie. The whip in my cream. The lemon in my meringue. The wish in my bone. She's the one who got away.

After ten years in the military, she's back. She's bruised and battered by life, but she's back. Except, she's not my second chance. She's gone to the dark side. Running a rival bakery in a town not big enough for two.

So, now I have to decide - which do I want more?

My bakery?

Or the woman I never should've let go in the first place?

Master Baker is a deliciously fun friends-to-enemies-to-lovers romantic comedy featuring a smooth-talking baker, the one who got away, and a goat with more matchmaking tendencies than a nosy old grandpa. It stands alone with no cheating or cliff-hangers.

talk dirty to your batter

While this isn't my top favorite by Pippa Grant, I loved it none the less! loved the dirty talk....even if it was to the batter/cookie dough. Sue was awesome and I love the crazy animals/pets in her books. definitely recommend this book for an easy read.

A fun, crazy, adorable, lovely romp!

Pippa Grant never fails to make me grin. This book is just another in SO many that have made my day with witty and silly banter. She somehow seems to make sense of the senseless and make love so lovable.

Annika and Grady are friends to enemies to lovers. With an unlikely rivalry between bakeries, but not between bakers since Annika can’t bake her way out of a wet paper bag.

I found some parts of the story a bit too lean on why Annika put so much onto her shoulders. And wondered why Grady was so all in with her, but then realized for him, it’s in his blood.

I’m also personally not into the “I love my best friend” being drilled into my head towards the end. I get it. Enough.

Still, the characters and their intertwining banter and stories is what makes this book enjoyable.

Jason Clarke’s voice was super hot. Virginia Rose had these little inflections in her narration that totally conveyed her characters emotions. I loved it all.

Hysterical & Touching Story

Pippa Grant is the epitome of the Rom/Com genre. Her fans don't even read the book blurb when a novel comes out. They just obtain a copy & dive in. I had read Master Baker when it came out & decided to listen to the Audio Book. So glad I did.

The superb narrations of Jason Clarke & Virginia Rose added another dimension to the novel. Their readings enhanced the humor & tugged at the heart strings when applicable. so be prepared to spit out your wine, tea or coffee if you were silly enough to do so when listening. Also be prepared for the looks you'll get when laugh snorting while commuting.

Pick up the audible book and become engrossed in the lives of Sipped Wrecked Citizens, Sarcasm Natives, a goat named Sue, Master Baker Grady & the woman he's loved since he was 14, Annika. Jason & Virginia's vocals will bring to life a thoroughly enjoyable Rom/Com.

GOAT

Theirs was a great lighthearted Funny love story. The characters were perfect. The addition of the animals in the story with no hurting or losing of anybody.

Why did I wait to read this?

Who says baking isn’t sexy? They haven’t met Grady and his love Annika. Talk about heating things up in the kitchen. This one definitely serves it up!

Grady & Annika

Second Chance Best Friends to Enemies to Lovers. A decade old unrequited love finally rejoined even feuding families, towns and secrets couldnt keep these two apart. The secondary characters are a hoot, not to mention the goat and Parrot. The finally got their HEA.. I love how Pippa incorporated previous characters from her other books for cameos.

Plenty of Laughs

In true Pippa Grant fashion, this was a Romcom was full of great characters and hilarious pets. The constant desserts and pasties had my mouth watering… what I would give for some recipes. The rivalry between Shipwreck and Sarcasm had some entertaining moments but also times when I wanted to yell at the characters to grow up.

second chances never tasted so good

Greeeeaaat choices in narrators! They did they characters justice. Who doesn't love a man that bakes and talks dirty to his creations? Who can't love a woman who is trying to making sure her mama's dreams come true even after a tragedy hits her? No one, that's who. Anika is strong willed, competitive, hard working and trying to hold on to the last piece of her sanity as she helps her mama and little sister open their bakery. Brady used to be her best friend, her chocolate chip cookie baker, her confidant until he asked her to give up her dreams for him without considering her needs and waiting until the last second to confess this to her. Both hurt, both missing a piece of their heart and both fighting to make their respected bakeries the best, battling each other for the title. Expected a lot of pent up chemistry waiting to boil over, kitchen mishaps, a goat matchmaker, and a lot of feeling as these two stubborn people battle each other, try to protect their hearts and survive a century or two years old town rivalries. l
Loved Anika and Grady's story and the narrators did a great job of these characters!
