The recipe box : a novel with recipes
(Book)

Growing up in northern Michigan, Sam felt trapped by her family's orchard and pie shop, where generations before her have lived and run the business. She left with dreams of becoming a classically trained pastry chef and making her own mark in the world. But life as an overworked, undervalued sous chef at a reality star's New York bakery is not what Sam imagined, and she returns home to take inventory. One beloved, flour-flecked, ink-smeared family recipe at a time, Sam begins to learn about and understand the women in her life, her family's history, and her passion for food through their treasured recipe box. As Sam discovers what matters most in her life, she opens her heart to a man she left behind but who now might be the key to her happiness.
