Life Life's Surprises

Rebekah Hayward always assumed she would live out her days in rural Wisconsin, surrounded by family in a town where nobody ever moved away. But after learning that she and her so-called husband of eighteen years were never actually married, she's discovered that life has other plans. Rebekah's path has led her to Asheville, North Carolina, a Southern mountain city that she hopes holds the secret ingredient to bringing her life-long dream to fruition. As a child, Rebekah learned to bake from her grandmother, Mère, who for years dreamed of opening a bakery. Now, at age thirty-six, Rebekah is starting over and fulfilling that dream for both of them. But being a business owner comes with its fair share of challenges, and it will take a village-full of second chances at life, friendship, and love-to make her dream a reality. The second book in the Life series by beloved women's fiction author Susan Amond Todd, Life's Surprises is a heartfelt reminder that life has a tendency to surprise us-oftentimes in the sweetest of ways.
