Romance Contemporary
A down-home, feel-good debut Southern romance, From Scratch
explores one woman’s journey back home to Dallas, Texas,
where her family is cooking up a plan that doesn’t quite
suit her tastes… Thirty-year-old Lillie Turner grew up with maple syrup stuck
to her skin and bacon grease splattered on her clothes,
courtesy of working in the family diner. Thank goodness she
escaped all that when she moved to Chicago five years ago.
Now a successful strategy consultant and newly engaged to a
man who complements her like biscuits and gravy, she has
everything she wants. When an urgent phone call about her father’s health pulls
Lillie back to Dallas, she soon learns it was a ruse to
bring her home so she can run the diner she’d rather avoid
and compete in the Upper Crust, an annual baking
competition, with no option to withdraw. Lillie is furious
and ready to run back to Chicago, but her father’s haggard
appearance makes her wonder if he’s hiding something. Things
go from bad to worse when Nick, her handsome ex and the only
man she ever truly loved, reappears, looking as scrumptious
as ever. Lillie’s trip home forces her to question the path she’s
chosen, find her place in the family she abandoned, and
wonder if the life she left behind is what she really wants
after all.
