About this book:
In the Southern town of Mystic Water, magic is always in the wind—and in the ovens
Anna O’Brien inherited several gifts from her late Grandma Bea: culinary superpowers, a bakery in a charming Southern town, and a mysterious box with a note:
Open the box only when you need to. You’ll know exactly when you do, and you’ll know what to do with it. I love you.
The night her presumed fiancé crushes her dreams, Anna opens the box and finds “magic sugar” inside, along with a recipe to bake “the perfect man.” Encouraged by her best friend Lily (and maybe a wee bit too much rum), a heartbroken Anna sets out to do what she always does when she’s feeling blue: bake.
She hardly believes her eyes the next morning when a man—a breathing and rather handsome man—is in her bakery and seems to know all her likes and dislikes, her quirks and preferences. Elijah is everything Anna dreamed and nothing she expected. Where did he come from? Is he real? And when he fashions his own ideas about what makes a good life, can she let him go?
My thoughts:
This is a perfect book for a vacation read or if you want something light, happy and entertaining. While totally unbelievable (you can’t bake a man, as much as you may wish you could), it was a really fun concept and I breezed through this in less than a day. The characters were all very believable. I loved the trio of best friends, supporting each other, sticking with each other through good and bad. I loved the dilemma the main character had in determining what to do with her future. It was very realistic in that sense. Very good book!
