Description:

When her career and marriage simultaneously implode, Audrey Sweetman retreats to Whitehaven Bay to take stock. But there is little time for solitude or navel-gazing; with an eclectic group of new friends at her back, Audrey is about to embrace a long-held dream – opening a bakery. Complete with mouth-watering recipes this book is a treat, a relatable and uplifting story of friendship, reinvention and withstanding the vicissitudes of life.
Comments from BDS Reviewers:"This is a lovely light read, showing the value of friendships, and the importance of being open to new ideas and new people".
"Yes, I would definitely recommend it. It was funny and thoughtful, covering a lot of serious themes - marital betrayal, ageing, family dysfunction and alcoholism".
"I did find reading the binary pronouns a little confusing initially but once I got used to them/their, it was easy reading".
"The baking and music sections at the end were a great idea. Liked the humour too".
"It's sad at times but also filled with love and humour".
"An easy read with a message to be kind to everyone".
