Description

For fans of Like Water for Chocolate and Woman on Top comes a deliciously magical and mouth watering story, filled with wonder, discovery, and new beginnings.

Thirty-one-year-old Wynter Morrison long ago gave up on finding a suitable career and drifted into the role of trophy wife to an ambitious advertising executive. After her husband decides that their marriage was a mistake Wyn leaves behind her posh, pampered life and ventures north to Seattle, spending aimless hours sipping coffee at a local bakery. As the sweet aromas of freshly-baked bread awaken memories of her apprenticeship at a French boulangerie, she feels the desire and ambition to bake bread once again.

Soon, Wyn finds--in the kneading of the dough and the scent of yeast hanging in the air--an unexpected and wondrous healing power that helps her to rediscover that nothing stays the same. Inspiring and beautifully rendered, Bread Alone is an uplifting debut novel guaranteed to warm the heart.

    I’ve read this twice now. I force myself to wait at least five years so I can mostly forget all but the major details. And I still rank it in the top five of my all time favorite books. ❤️

    I bought this book 10 years ago or so & loved it along with everything else she wrote. Love the story of a woman finding herself & finding her passion for her work. Hers is bread baking just love her writing the series. I gave the original book away & when I saw it on sale I didn’t hesitate to buy. She also has a new book (new to iBooks) that I have purchased. You won’t be disappointed in a book about an amazing woman & the love of baking.
