Imagine a bakery tucked away on the cobblestone streets of Compiègne, where every pastry seems to hold a sprinkle of magic. Locals whisper that a single bite of a croissant can chase away sorrow, unlock forgotten memories, or reveal secret desires. It sounds like a dream, right? Well, that’s exactly the kind of place Edie Lane finds herself in—though not quite where she expected.
Edie’s story begins with a dash of wishful thinking and a pinch of desperation. She leaves behind her life in Ireland, chasing a dream job at a bakery in Paris. But surprise—she’s not in Paris at all. Instead, she ends up in this enchanting little town with a bakery that’s anything but ordinary. At first, it feels like a recipe for disaster, but soon Edie realizes this unexpected detour might be exactly where she’s meant to be.
From the bestselling author of The Lost Bookshop, this novel is a warm, irresistible treat for anyone who loves stories about magic, hope, and second chances. The writing is beautiful and immersive, capturing the wonder that comes from losing yourself in a world where pastries can heal and hearts can mend. Readers rave about how they couldn’t put the book down, swept up in the charm of Edie’s journey and the mysterious baker who adds a little extra sweetness to her life.
Whether you’re a book lover or a pastry fan—or both—this story promises to delight. It’s a magical escape filled with surprises, rich prose, and a heartfelt reminder that sometimes, the best things happen when you least expect them. Trust me, once you start, you won’t want to stop until you’ve savored every last page.
