Synopsis:

After life takes five women on different paths, a death brings them home. But friendship might not be enough to keep them together.


When Bria Landon and her estranged father each inherit fifty percent of a small-town cupcake shop, her dad hires her worst enemy, and first love, to turn the place into a soulless franchise…or sell it.


To save her aunt’s legacy, Bria needs the help of people who love the bakery as much as she does—her old friends who worked there fifteen years ago. Except each woman is dealing with her own problem:


Juliet, who's trying to prove she’s more than a trophy wife; Missy, a widow who fears losing the job she loves; Nell, who's meddling mother won't stop playing matchmaker; and Selena, a life coach who excels at fixing everyone else's lives...but hasn't a clue what's missing in her own.


Each woman wants to believe their friendship can overcome anything. But as the Berry Lake Cupcake Posse reunite to save their beloved cupcake shop, they soon discover the undertaking will bring more trouble than they expected.


Review:



Cupcakes & Crumbs tells the story of five women, five friends who haven't seen each other for a long and now they meet again for the sad death of their ex employer.

Bria, Missy, Juliet, Nell and Selena have worked together for a Summer at Bria's aunt cupcake shop, easily becoming the best of friends other than just simple collegues. They were young and they had a lot of dreams that kept some of them away from their hometown of Berry Lake, they didn't keep in touch with each other but when they meet again it seems like time never passed.


I've really enjoyed this book, I was entranced from the beginning and I was really invested in the lives of this diverse group of friends that try to support each other even if many years has passed from last time they have seen each other.

Melissa McClone did an excellent job of depicting these characters and tieing their lives to one onother, her writing was easy to read and that ending made me so curious I can't wait to get next book in this series
