Description

The perfect blend of sweetness and substance, with plenty of laughs along the way Debbie Johnson, bestselling author of Summer at the Comfort Food Cafe

One chance isn't always enough
A feel-good story thats as scrumptious as your favourite slice of cake!

Emmas new caf will be perfect, with its gorgeous strings of vintage bunting, mouth-wateringly gooey cakes, comforting pots of tea and quirky customers who think of each other as friends.

Its a long road to get there, but as her business fills with freelancing hipsters, stroppy teens, new mums and old neighbourhood residents, Emma realises that theyre not the only ones getting a second chance. She is too.

But when someone commits bloomicide on their window boxes, their milk starts disappearing and their cake orders are mysteriously cancelled, it becomes clear that someone is determined to close them down.

Will the caf be their second chance after all
