Reviews
Lucy Parker's Battle Royal won my heart with its effortless effervescence and deep notes of aching poignancy. I adored this tale of rival bakers who forge an unexpected connection while vying for a royal commission., One of my personal favorite combinations of romance tropes is the English lord in a contemporary tale with a Jane Austen twist, and The Austen Playbook by Lucy Parker delivers., "Lucy Parker writes deliciously fun enemies-to-lovers perfection!" -- Tessa Bailey, New York Times bestselling author "Delightful, funny, romantic, and surprisingly emotional, Battle Royal is Lucy Parker at her best. A wonderful must read romance that I could not put down." -- Kristen Callihan, New York Times bestselling author "Lucy Parker's books are marvels of wit and warmth and empathy, and Battle Royal is no exception. It's as delicious as the cakes baked by Sylvie and Dominic, from first page to last. I swooned, laughed, wept, and loved the story wholeheartedly, and I can't wait to reread it ASAP." -- Olivia Dade, national bestselling author of Spoiler Alert "As magical as it's heroine's confectionary creations, Battle Royal is absolutely enchanting. Lucy Parker is the Michelangelo of grumpy + sunshine. I gobbled this book up!" -- Rosie Danan, author of The Intimacy Experiment "Only an author as deft and gifted as Parker could seamlessly mix these things into one tale and have them come out as perfectly calibrated, delectably sweet, and emotionally layered as a masterful wedding cake." -- Entertainment Weekly "There are so many things to love about this book! Its wit and warmth; the deft way Parker weaves in a Great British Bake Off-like competition; the scintillating royal secrets. But my favorite by far was watching the icy hero melt into a puddle at his sunshine heroine's feet. Battle Royal is the perfect reading-slump buster, and once again proves why Lucy Parker is the Queen of the Grump." -- Therese Beharrie, author of One Last Chance "Lucy Parker's Battle Royal won my heart with its effortless effervescence and deep notes of aching poignancy. I adored this tale of rival bakers who forge an unexpected connection while vying for a royal commission." -- Ruby Lang, author of Playing House "Battle Royal is Lucy Parker at her best! This book is the coziness of your favorite baking competition show with the snipe and spark of a great enemies to lovers romance. Try and have a snack handy while you're reading this one ... you will get hungry from all the delicious descriptions while Dominic and Sylvie bake, banter, and fall in love." -- Jen DeLuca, author of Well Played "Parker is a writer who knows her audience, and she keeps raising the bar when it comes to warm romances and charming tropes. Opposites attracting over delicious cakes and the fearsome thrill of competition are a heady combination as Sylvie and Dominic's chemistry snaps, crackles, and pops off every page. The slow burn of the romance is tantalizing and well paced, though there is plenty of setting and detail to take in while readers await the inevitable happily-ever-after. An utterly delicious romance that's meant to be devoured." -- Kirkus Reviews (starred review) "With a perfect trifecta of endearing characters, superb use of the enemies-to-lovers trope, and a chemistry-laden slow burn, this excellent start to Parker's newest series is one readers will rush to dive into." -- Library Journal (starred review) "Parker's winsomely witty and whimsically inventive contemporary romance is truly scrumptious. From the zippy dialogue and humorous banter exchanged between the book's perfectly matched protagonists to the delectable descriptions of sweet treats that would not be out of place in Willy Wonka's factory, this deliciously sexy love story whips up everything romance readers crave." -- Booklist (starred review) "Brimming with pop culture references and quick wit... irresistible banter and even more irresistible chemistry... The result has all the fun of a fluffy rom-com, with the emotional catharsis of a more dramatic romance." -- Publishers Weekly, To say I loved this book is an understatement -- I adored it. The romance is beautifully written and developed and the chemistry between Luc and Lily is explosive., Parker's voice is distinctive and pert, as bouncy and lively as her heroine, and you'll inevitably find yourself grinning at the cheeky banter and musings that zip off the page with a warmth and alacrity that is instantly disarming.

Ready... Four years ago, Sylvie Fairchild charmed the world as a contestant on the hit baking show, Operation Cake.

The toast of Instagram, Sugar Fair has captured the attention of the Operation Cake producers...and a princess. Set...

Her fantastical baking is only slightly more troublesome than the fact that he can't stop thinking about her pink-streaked hair and irrepressible dimple. Match... When Dominic and Sylvie learn they will be fighting for the once in a lifetime opportunity to bake a cake for the upcoming wedding of Princess Rose, the flour begins to fly as they fight to come out on top.
