Publisher's summary

Issy Randall can bake. No, Issy can create stunning, mouthwateringly divine cakes. After a childhood spent in her beloved Grampa Joe's bakery, she has undoubtedly inherited his talent. She's much better at baking than she is at filing, so when she's laid off from her desk job, Issy decides to open her own little café. But she soon learns that her piece-of-cake plan will take all of her courage and confectionary talent to avert disaster.

Funny and sharp, Meet Me at the Cupcake Café is about how life might not always taste like you expect, but there's always room for dessert!

Loved it!

Such a sweet story and lovable characters. I plan to read/listen to the next book in the series. I may even try one of the cake recipes.

Fun

This was good, clean and sweet (pun intended) fun. I enjoyed the characters and the light-handed social commentary. I did find it stretched on a bit at points, but overall was engaging. The recipes were a fun addition.

Loved it!

I love the characters and the story. The narrator was excellent. Such a charming and loving story. I wish the 2nd novel was available in Audible. I cried happy tears at the end of the book, which for me makes it an excellent listen.

Fun read

I enjoyed the visual images that the author provides that goes with the story lines. Several stories would love a sequel to follow some other characters. Times I was saying no no no! Growth in each character was evident!

A welcomed escape

Really enjoyed the story. Just the right amount of sugar; pun intended. The characters were believable and it never dragged on. Will definitely read more of her books.

I love happy ending

I love stories where the subjects go through a hare challenge and come out with a happy ending. It's like a testimony that life is truly on your side

Love Jenny Colgan books!!

Jenny has a great way of telling a story with human characters that you can relate to, with humor and heart tugging moments. Love her! Michelle Ford did a great narration and character voices.
