From
#1 New York Times bestselling author Audrey Carlan comes a story of
sisters, self-discovery and a little something sweet.
Baking is Isabeau Collins’s life. Back from studying under the finest chefs in
France and Italy, and with a newly minted culinary degree in hand, Izzy is
ready to pursue her dream: whipping up creative confections in her own custom
cake shop. But her perfect plans are waylaid when two women claiming to be her
half sisters show up with a stack of letters addressed to Izzy from their late
mother. Torn between launching her career and the need to learn more about her
family history, Izzy makes the decision to go to Colorado to connect with the
sisters she’s never known.
Then Izzy stumbles across a run-down storefront in Pueblo’s funky downtown and
instantly knows that with a bit of work it’s the perfect location for her dream
bakery…which means her detour to Colorado will be a permanent reroute. And with
an unexpected relationship growing between Izzy and her contractor, Kyson, she
has yet another reason to stick around—even if there are secrets in Kyson’s
past Izzy can’t quite figure out. Fighting homesickness and self-doubt, Izzy
worries that she’s making a mistake. But with her sisters close and her dreams
within reach, she can’t help but wonder if her riskiest move could be the most
rewarding decision she’s ever made.

– ☆☆☆☆
This is the third (and probably final, although I wish it weren't) book in the
series, and it is pretty much essential to have read the earlier ones to
understand the overall picture. There are plenty of reminders of the underlying
plot if it has been a while since you read the last one, but no labouring of
the points. What Carlan has done with this series is show us a flawed
character, whose actions go against a lot of what is generally perceived as
'right' and unpick the outcomes and make us see there was hope, meaning, and
above all, love in those actions. I don't think that makes it easier for the
sisters, but it gives them peace in the end.
Isabeau and her best friend, Jasper, have just graduated when two women come to
the family house and upturn all she has known about herself. As we watch her
find herself again, we also see how resilient she is, and how open to new
experiences, family, and especially, to love. Her immediate attraction to Kyson
is very endearing, and her newly found sisters provide her with the confidence
and support that she needs.
I have put this firmly in my reread when I need cheering up pile, as it
definitely needs a tissue to hand, and yet is fun and life-affirming. Thank you,
Audrey Carlan, for a truly lovely series.
