In one tragic moment, Holly Jefferson's life as she knew it changed forever. Now she's running her bakery, Cake-- or at least going through the motions. Then she meets Ciaran Argyll. His privileged and charmed life feels a million miles from her own. But Ciaran, too, is wrestling with ghosts. Will Holly find the missing ingredient that allows her to live again-- and embrace an unknown and unexpected tomorrow?
