Eat Cake

In her most stressing of moments she escapes by imagining herself hiding in the center of a cake. I found this a bit odd, but it intrigued me enough to continuing reading.

Ruthie being a stay-at-home-momma spent a lot of time baking. It is something her Mom taught her at a young age and as she grew older she fell in love with baking; it became a craft. The ingredients worked for her like they would work for no one else.

When Ruthie's husband was laid off at the hospital things began to get a little bit crazy. It's no surprise what happened, I'm sure you know even without reading further. Ruthie began her own business, "Eat Cake."

The story isn't all predictable, though most of it is if you're astute enough to realize it. There is a couple love stories involved as well as the relationship between mother and daughter spanning generations.

Writing anymore about the book would give away far too much detail and so I won't be. However I will tell you this is definitely chic lit. It is an easy and entertaining read. I highly recommend it to anyone who needs a breather. The book is written excellently with great character development. You'll finish reading with a smile on your face and craving for some cake. =o)

Buy Eat Cake or look to see other books written by Jeanne Ray.
