Chapter Eleven

The next day was a rare Saturday with no wedding, which meant that Jenn was the only person at Married in Malibu. For all her progress, there was still so much to do, which was why she was working while everyone else took the day off. Not only finishing up the individual components for the cakes, but also the assembly and decoration. The sugar and marzipan detail work alone was enough to make her start to panic.

“Breathe,” Jenn reminded herself. Spiraling off into an anxious mess wasn’t going to help. Instead, she simply needed to tackle her list one item at a time—especially the one big thing she’d been avoiding all week that had been hanging over her casting its shadows.

Her ex.

Jenn pulled out her phone where there were several new texts from Oliver. All of them had the same theme: While he acknowledged that things had ended badly, he “really needed” to see her.

She couldn’t ignore him any longer, no matter how much she wished she could. His frequent texts were a huge distraction, especially when she had such a big project to complete. But she was determined to set up a meeting on her terms, not his—in a place where she felt safe and at a time that was convenient for her.

I can see you today, 11 am at Malibu T and Coffee.

Her phone dinged less than five seconds later with his affirmative response. Looked like she was going to be having coffee with her ex today.

Ugh.

Fortunately, for the next few hours, she would be doing her favorite thing in the world: creating beautiful wedding cakes.

She set to work on the decorations for the Malibu-themed cake, and then while her seashells and starfish were setting, she began to frost the traditional cake. By the time she stopped to take a break, she had used nearly a gallon of icing and had made so many caramel shells that she could have restocked the beach with them.

Thankfully, exhilaration had overtaken anxiety while she worked. She truly was the luckiest person in the world to have a job she loved so much—one where she could let her creativity loose every single day, with the knowledge that she was making a bride and groom happy on their special day.

But it wasn’t only her job that had her feeling like she was walking on air. It was Daniel. Every time she thought about him, she couldn’t stop smiling.

What a difference a week made. After everything Oliver had done, Jenn had sworn off men. She’d planned to forever cut herself off from emotion, to just focus on her work, and never, ever risk her heart with anyone again. But she couldn’t stop thinking about Daniel, couldn’t stop dreaming of what it would be like to have his arms wrapped around her, his lips pressed to hers…

Last week, she would have told herself to stop dreaming, to stop wishing. But the more she got to know him, the more she wanted to risk. Risk opening up to him the way he’d opened up to her.
