Daisy McCrae's life is a mess. She's lost her job, broken up with her boyfriend, and has been reduced to living in the attic above her family's store, the Union Street Bakery, while learning the business. Making things worse is the constant feeling of not being a "real" McCrae, since she was adopted as a child and has a less-than-perfect relationship with her two sisters. Then a long-standing elderly customer passes away, and for some reason she bequeaths to Daisy a journal dating back to the 1850s, written by an enslaved girl named Susie. As Daisy reads, she learns more about her family - and her own heritage - than she had ever imagined. Haunted by dreams of the young Susie, she is compelled to look further into the past of the town and her family. “A wonderful story about sisters, family, and the things that matter most. I loved this beautifully written journey of self-discovery.” Wendy Wax, USA Today bestselling author
