Emma Rae Travis and Jackson Drake are finally getting
married! After Jackson's wedding destination hotel, The
Tanglewood Inn, has hosted hundreds of weddings, they will
now have their own there. Jackson pops the question with a
beautiful diamond ring and Emma, along with their wedding
planner and designer, sets the plans in motion. All the
details are coming together nicely except for one: Emma,
who is the baker for the hotel, can't decide on her own
wedding cake design. She's been sketching, but none of the
designs seems to be the right one to portray her and
Jackson's story. Will she ever find the perfect one?
Just weeks before the wedding, Jackson is offered a very
lucrative deal to sell the inn and the rights to duplicate
it across the United States, Canada and in Europe. This
offer would allow him and Emma to spend the year in Paris
they have dreamed of, Emma attending a culinary school and
Jackson writing his book. There are so many things to
consider and so many people whose lives will be touched by
Jackson's decision. Will he sell and fulfill their
pipedream, or stay where he and Emma are working themselves
to an early grave?
It's always nice to return to a familiar place and visit
with old friends. That's what these characters have become
as I've read all four books in Sandra Bricker's Emma
Rae Creations series. The characters are whimsical, yet
endearing, and have captured my heart. I do hope ALWAYS THE
BAKER, FINALLY THE BRIDE is not Bricker's last book in this
series. As with all her previous books, the author
reintroduces characters without going through exhausting
details of their position in the stories, as well as
introducing new characters who always add depth and charm
to the story. Added bonuses between each chapter are the
sketches of Emma's cake possibilities for her wedding,
numerous wedding tips and some delicious-sounding recipes.
ALWAYS THE BAKER, FINALLY THE BRIDE can stand alone, but
the entire series is a winner. Put this one on your list.
In Always the Baker, Never the Bride, readers fell in love
with Emma Rae and Jackson, and they’ve gotten more
acquainted with them in the two books that followed.
But now it’s time for the diamond to meet the road as
Jackson fields an offer to sell The Tanglewood, a move that
will uproot this high-flying family act once and for all.
Get reacquainted with all of the lovable and quirky
characters from the first three books as your favorite
diabetic baker figures out if she'll achieve her greatest
goal of all: Will Emma, at last, become FINALLY the Bride?
