I didn’t have any book to listen to so I quickly hopped onto my Hoopla app and checked for a book. This one popped up. I’ve read the first in the series and really enjoyed it so picking this book, Sweet Expectations by Mary Ellen Taylor was easy.
I really enjoyed the first book and was so hoping I’d enjoy this one too…and I did. This book like the first has a little bit of mystery to the story. Each has things going on in the present day but there is a story about something that happened in the past as well. The story of the past parallels the story in the present. It’s a great format for book writing.
Here is what Amazon had to say:
“Running the family bakery and living in the store’s attic might not be Daisy’s dream life, but she’s beginning to understand what being content feels like. And then she gets some unexpected news. In one moment, Daisy’s calm existence turns into chaos. Now she’s struggling to keep it together, especially with renovations at the bakery spiraling out of control.
But when a box of recipes and mementos is found hidden behind a wall in the bakery, Daisy suddenly has something to cling to—a mystery that echoes her own troubles and gives her the opportunity to figure out what she really wants out of life….”
Amazon readers gave the book 4.6 stars. I’m going to give it 4.4 stars. I am really enjoying this series and plan to check to see if there are more books in the series. I’m curious to see what happens at the bakery.
You can find the book HERE on Amazon.
If you are new to the series, read this book, The Union Street Bakery, first.
I read both of these because of you recommended the first one. Really nice reads.
