Cupcakes, crafting and love at The Cherry Tree Cafe... Perfect feel-good summer reading for fans of Great British Bake-Off.Lizzie Dixon's life feels as though it's fallen apart. Instead of the marriage proposal she was hoping for from her boyfriend, she is unceremoniously dumped, and her job is about to go the same way. So, there's only one option: to go back home to the village she grew up in and to try to start again.
Her best friend Jemma is delighted Lizzie has come back home. She has just bought a little cafe and needs help in getting it ready for the grand opening. And Lizzie's sewing skills are just what she needs.
With a new venture and a new home, things are looking much brighter for Lizzie. But can she get over her broken heart, and will an old flame reignite a love from long ago...?
For everyone who loves settling down to watch Great British Bake-Off, the Great British Sewing Bee, or curling up to read Milly Johnson or Jenny Colgan,The Cherry Tree Cafe is a coffee-break treat.
If you want a perfect book to read on your hols, this is it. Escape to the depths of the countryside (just like Amber) and get lost in the trials and tribulations of the lovely folk of Wynbridge. Heidi writes just what you need to read: there's excitement, humour, cliff-hangers and a bitchy ex- girlfriend we really don't trust even when she's being 'nice'. It was great to spend time with the characters from The Cherry Tree Café again and I really can't wait for her next book to see what else they get up to.
