Jake Dubois, a divorced dad, runs the I Eat Cake blog. Every week he tastes a bakery-made cake, reviews it and attempts to recreate it. He loves the work almost as much as he loves his six-year-old daughter.
Widower Ben Rummel's twin girls are still toddlers and he's grateful to his mother for helping out while he runs his business, the Banana Bear Bakery. He asks the I Eat Cake blog guy to review one of his creations, hoping to increase the visibility of his newly opened bakery.
Jake loves Ben's cake, but he's also quite taken with the man himself and the feeling is mutual. They arrange a playdate for their girls, which lets the two men spend more time with each other, too. One get-together leads to another and soon they're hanging out on a regular basis.
If they're going to take their relationship deeper, they'll have to navigate a few bumps in the road, not least of which is Jake's ex. But if they can, they just might be able to make a life for themselves as sweet as any of Ben's creations.
