Overview

When a displaced family arrives in a town that doesn't want them, they open a bakery.

Not just a bakery. Here the bread is made for specific people - for needs no one has spoken out loud yet. Soren bakes. Ayla mixes remedies. Seventeen-year-old Tadea holds them all together, and eleven-year-old Fen sees more than a child should. They came here to survive. The town would rather they moved along.

But warmth is stubborn. One loaf, one neighbor at a time, the little shop becomes something the town didn't know it needed - and the family becomes something like home.

A quiet, luminous cozy fantasy about displacement, found family, and the small magic of being truly seen. For readers of Legends & Lattes, The House in the Cerulean Sea, and A Psalm for the Wild-Built.
