Description

It's 1952 and Mabel is feeling the weight of being a mother to three young children and running the bakery. And now that Mark knows he is Matthew's father, she's afraid Luke will discover the truth.


In this gripping story about family, fate, and forgiveness, a number of characters from The Year With No Spring reprise their roles, including Lily and her protector, Ed Baxter, who is harbouring a secret of his own; one that could jeopardize his future with the woman he loves. Several new characters round out this richly woven story that delves into the punishing social norms of a bygone time, the fragile nature of relationships, the importance of forgiveness, and the possibility that our fates are predetermined.


As always, Mabel is there to help her friends deal with their fears, doubts, and heartbreaking loss, even if it takes a toll on her own physical and emotional well-being.


In this, the fifth instalment in The Bread Maker series, the author once again takes you on a nostalgic journey back in time. Her signature style of fast-paced, dramatic storylines, interspersed with bursts of humour, will intrigue, amuse, and surprise readers, leaving them to wonder what's next for the memorable cast of characters they've come to know and love.
