About This Book
Cora Lee Merriweather baked the best pies and cakes for miles—fluffy meringue pies, flaky strudels, layer cakes, sheet cakes, and cakes with frosting finer than Irish lace. But now Cora Lee haunts the shop she used to own.
When new bakers arrive to take over her empty bake shop, Cora Lee scares them away, each and every one. Then Annie Washington comes to town . . .
Jacqueline K. Ogburn and Marjorie Priceman combine their talents to give us an enchanting baker's battle in this story about how to unlock the secrets of the perfect recipe and a lonely heart.
