Publisher Description

At the end of a long night, Elizabeth leans against the industrial oven and takes in her kingdom. Once vibrant and flawless, evenings in the kitchen now feel chaotic and exhausting. She's lost her culinary magic, and business is slowing down. When worried investors enlist the talents of a tech-savvy celebrity chef to salvage the restaurant, Elizabeth feels the ground shift beneath her feet. Not only has she lost her touch, she's losing her dream—and her means of escape. When her mother died, Elizabeth fled home and the overwhelming sense of pain and loss. But fifteen years later, with no other escapes available, she now returns. Brimming with desperation and dread, Elizabeth finds herself in the unlikeliest of places, by her sister's side in Seattle as Jane undergoes chemotherapy.

“Deeply moving and intensely meaningful, Reay’s latest gives readers an intimate look into the lives of sisters. Elizabeth’s character is raw and real—her desire to live a meaningful life, yet her authentic fear of rejection will help everyone identify closely with her journey. Delicious descriptions of food and the closeness that provides to others gives the novel even more depth.”
