The Baker's Man — Jennifer Moorman

This enchanting and whimsical tale of friendship, love, and the power of baking dreams into life will open readers' eyes to the magic all around them.

New York City -- trained pastry chef Anna O'Brien inherited her grandma Bea's small-town Southern bakery -- situated between the seventy-five-year-old hardware store and the newly opened clothing boutique on Main Street -- along with its unusual, life-changing recipes two years ago. And while Anna has adjusted to small-town life with the support of her two best friends, Lily and Tessa, she's also smothered her own dreams in order to keep the family legacy intact.

When she tries out a recipe left behind by her grandmother -- “how to create the perfect man” -- a gorgeous stranger suddenly appears. Soon Anna is living in a world where she must deal with the repercussions of Elijah's unexpected existence. Amid the inevitable chaos, she realizes that listening to her own voice is the most important ingredient of all.
