There's More To Life Than Cupcakes: A cosy, laugh-out-loud romance

Ellie Redford’s life is pretty much perfect: a fantastic husband, loyal friends, and a steady job at a food magazine. But everyone around her insists there’s one thing missing: a baby.

While her husband Pete is ready to become a dad, Ellie’s not so sure. Babies mean sacrificing late nights, lazy Sundays, and her career ambitions. When she joins a baking class to distract herself, she meets Joe, handsome, charming, and a master of the whisk.

What starts as harmless flirting soon turns complicated and Ellie must figure out where her heart truly lies, proving that, unlike baking, there’s no perfect recipe for life …

A funny, feel-good novel about baking, love, and the unpredictable joys of life—perfect for fans of Lucy Diamond, Laura Jane Williams, and Mhairi McFarlane.

Poppy Dolan lives in Berkshire with her husband, where she is a keen baker and crafter as well as a prolific author of many laugh-out-loud romantic comedies.
