About the book: A solitary artisan. A legacy of bread-baking. And one secret that could collapse her entire identity.Liesl McNamara's life can be described in one word: bread. From her earliest memory, her mother and grandmother passed down the mystery of baking and the importance of this deceptively simple food. And now, as the owner of Wild Rise bake house, Liesl spends every day up to her elbows in dough, nourishing and perfecting her craft.
But the simple life she has cultivated is becoming quite complicated. Her head baker brings his troubled grandson into the bakeshop as an apprentice. Her waitress submits her recipes to a popular cable cooking show. And the man who delivers her flour --- a single father with strange culinary
habits --- seems determined to win Liesl's affection.
When Wild Rise is featured on television, her quiet existence appears a thing of the past. And then a phone call from a woman claiming to be her half-sister forces Liesl to confront long-hidden secrets in her family's past. With her precious heritage crumbling around her, the baker must make a choice: allow herself to be buried in detachment and remorse, or take a leap of faith into a new life.

My Review:
First of all, this book made me want to eat bread... lots of bread. Second, this book made me want to make lots of bread (probably to eat). The story behind this book was well written and enjoyable. I really longed to hear more about several of the characters in the story as they were so interesting. There recipes in the book are a fun addition to the wonderful story. Parrish is a great story teller and the way she describes everything in the book is almost terrific. Like I've said, this book is much more than a book about a bread maker, but I promise you will want to eat lots of bread while reading it!
I received this book for free in exchange for my honest opinion.
