Donut Be Shy by F.G. Adams
Amy Young runs The Purple PolkaDot bakery like a well-oiled machine and is not about to let anything or anyone stand in the way of her success—especially not the smug, oh-so-panty-dropping Tanner ‘Moose’ Mason. He thought she would succumb to his smooth Cajun charms at a snap of his delicious, enticing fingers, but Amy refuses to be another cupcake or his specialty for the day.
Tanner Mason has met his match in Amy Young. After one night of ecstasy, he craves the beautiful albeit bashful pastry chef even more than her mouth-watering chocolate delicacies. He tasted the sugary sweetness she hides from others and won’t settle until Amy faces the fact that she belongs with him.
A well-orchestrated encounter arranged by their friends knocks them out of the safe rut they’ve both been stuck in. Finally, Moose has the chance he’s been waiting for and starts his relentless pursuit. Anything goes. He's on a mission to once again have Amy in his arms, and this good ‘Ol’ Cajun Boy’ will stop at nothing to make her his own.
Gabby Foster’s plan was coming together. She finally graduated from culinary school as a pastry chef, she’d put in her time with her mentor at a beautiful French bakery, and secured a full time position there. When Alex Ward, the confident and charming restaurateur buys the bakery she works for, she’s left with a difficult decision. Stay and help open the donut shop, completely dismantling the bakery she loves, or leave the whole dream behind.
Donut Leave Me by Teresa Crumpton
Forest Jenson lives the wild life, and the only thing he takes seriously is his career as a pastry chef. At thirty-five, he still spends all of his free time hooking up, hitting the town, and refusing to settle down. Growing up and having a family are the furthest things from his mind until an old one-night-stand crashes the party to inform him he has a daughter. A seven-year-old daughter.
Ella Hartley has never met her father. In fact, for as long as she can remember, her mother has insisted on having Ella all to herself. If not for stories, and her Aunt Piper, Ella might not know a single thing about the man. But that's all about to change, and as Ella faces saying goodbye to one parent, she'll find herself suddenly saying hello to the other.
A reluctant new father braves the difficult tasks of caring for his daughter, making her happy, and keeping the memory of her mother alive all while getting to know her. Determined to succeed, Forest will try anything to create a special bond with Ella that preserves her happy memories and helps her make new ones—even a weekly trip to the local donut shop.

Donut Hole by Regina Frame
Harper Abbott had tried for four years to get over her high school sweetheart. She thought she had done it until his band showed up in their small town to play for some rich kid's birthday party. She tries to ignore his promises to make her remember just how good they were together, but she remembered. She remembered all too well what his touch was like, how soft his lips were on her neck. He asks her for one weekend. That's all he would need to make her see they were meant to be. There was one thing standing in their way. She had a new business to run. She'd put everything she had and then some into The Donut Hole. If she lost it, she'd be homeless.
She agrees to go on one condition: He come back to their small town and work with her for one weekend. Oh, the things you can do with donut glaze and cream filling!
Donut Dilemma by Jessica Klide
When college graduate, Farrah Ford, takes a summer job at Do Donuts, she is pretty sure she has encountered the love of her life. The problem is she isn’t sure who he is.
Cade, a doctor in his 40’s, comes in every day and orders 4 donuts, frosted and striped, with an iced vanilla latte. Always alone, he sits staring at his phone until Farrah falls at his feet. #Dominant is the hashtag that describes this sophisticated hottie.
Justin, the owner’s son, 26 and fresh from the military, enters the bakery pre-dawn, ties on an apron, rolls up his sleeves, and turns on more than the fryers. He likes his donuts caked in sprinkles and dunked in milk. The way he eats them gives Do Donuts a whole other meaning. #Delicious is the hashtag that describes this sensual stud.
Her donut dilemma? Which one is she secretly sexting?
Frosted Stripes or Celebration Sprinkles?
Donut Tease Me by Kristen Luciani
Jelly-filled, glazed, iced with sprinkles…Donuts. They’re my kryptonite.
As I drag a finger through the thick vanilla frosting, I can think of only one more ingredient to turn my sugar fest into utter perfection.
Bobby Moone, my other weakness, who happens to be equally scrumptious and one I want to devour like this Boston Creme.
Oh yeah, he’s also my best friend.
I suck the icing off of my finger. Damn, I wish I was licking it off something else. But I missed my chance, and now he’s gone, just like this box of sinfully delicious pastries. Off to Los Angeles to become a famous rockstar when he could have married me instead.
Maybe I should have told him that was an option before he took over the music industry.
Maybe I still will...
Donut Be Easy by Kristen Hope Mazzola
"I'm gone!"
That's all my now ex-wife said as she packed her stuff and stormed out of our house on my fortieth birthday.
It was a total kick in the teeth. Right?
I thought my life was completely over before it could really get started.
Turns out gone wasn't a bad thing.
Skye did me a favor.
She made it possible for me to find my true calling in life—donuts.
That cute little pastry chef was just the sprinkles on top.
Donut Tucker Out by Mayra Statham
I’m a divorced mom of two boys, living with my sister, juggling more than one woman should. If I end the day without a stain on my shirt and drinking my body weight in coffee, I call it a good day. I’m not a catch by any means.
Yet somehow, I’ve caught the eye of one of the sexiest men I have ever come across. Chase Tucker is tall, dark, and sexy. Too bad he’s my son’s teacher.
When the end of the school year approaches, Mr. Tucker shocks me by making a move. And he’s coming for me with sneaky touches, flirty texts, and late-night make-out sessions. Oh my!
Donut know what to say, other than I’m more than happy to let him Tucker me out!
