In David Letterman style we’ll do the countdown to my favorite cupcake…
5. White Chocolate Chip Pumpkin Cupcakes with Cream Cheese Frosting...
Autumn is my favorite season. The crisp mornings and warm afternoons are
amazing. As are the foods…there’s soups, stews and all sorts of pumpkin
deserts. What’s not to like. ;-)
4. Apple Cupcakes with a dollop of Cinnamon-Cream Cheese Frosting...
These totally make my mouth water just thinking about them. And they are
delicious year round.
3. Lemon Cupcake with Lemon Cream Frosting...and some sprinkles...
Maybe it’s the kid in me but I still love the sprinkles and I always have
to add a few…okay, a lot. ;-)
2. Almond Cupcake with Salted Caramel Buttercream Frosting...I love
most every nut except cashews. *shrugging* And I love caramel. This cupcake
melts in my mouth. That’s why I need second and thirds, but shh…don’t tell,
I’m supposed to be dieting. ;-)
1. Black Bottom Cupcakes...hands down my favorite. My mother-in-law
makes a version of these. They are so moist and delicious that absolutely no
frosting is needed. ;-)
Have I made everyone hungry now???
Imagine my torture in writing A MOMENT ON THE LIPS where the heroine owns the
Poppin’ Fresh Bakery, and she has a total weakness for cupcakes. I think I
gained at least five pounds while writing that book. ;-)

Welcome to Autumn Fest…sweet treats, entertaining company, and a tender
romance.
Piper Noble feels like she’s going places. Her business, the Poppin’ Fresh
Bakery, is a culinary success story. Next on her to-do list is expanding the
bakery into the vacant shop next door… and starting a new diet, like her mom
keeps nagging her to. But when Joe Montoya steps into her life, her grand
plans grind to a sudden halt.
Joe’s taken a big risk returning to Whistle Stop. But with his disastrous
marriage over, it’s time for a fresh start, including opening a coffee shop…
and coming to terms with his troubled past. Though his neighbor Piper looks
like she’ll be a big distraction in getting Fill-It-Up Joe off the ground—
with her honeyed smile, curvy goodness, and her unflagging determination to
grab his storefront.
However, when Piper and Joe are elected as co-chairs of a fundraising
committee to help the town’s revitalization project, the hostilities must
cease. Joe’s not sure about spending time with a woman who, one moment,
reminds him of all the good things he’s been missing, and the next minute
drives him up a wall with her stubbornness. Meanwhile, Piper’s looking for
the way to this gorgeous but grouchy guy’s heart —maybe serving him one of
her fresh- from-the-oven pastries could be just the right start…
