When diabetic Emma Rae Travis wins the prestigious Passionate Palate Award for her innovative crème brulee wedding cake, she’s thrilled to be offered the position of pastry chef by the new proprietors of the Tanglewood Inn, an Atlanta institution being renovated into a five-star wedding destination hotel. She’s also attracted to its CEO. But Jackson Drake is still mourning his beloved wife’s untimely passing, and is unable to reconcile his burgeoning feelings for Emma Rae with his loyalty to Desirée’s memory.

Not for dieters, Always the Baker Never the Bride by Sandra D. Bricker attacks the taste buds and heart and doesn't let go. Throughout this delightful romantic comedy, you'll laugh and cry with characters you feel like you know. Close your eyes, and you just might be able to taste the award winning creme brulee wedding cake that almost becomes one of the characters in the story.

Though the characters are memorable in their own rite, it is the witty dialogue and exemplary prose of this book that are so unforgettable. Within the pages of this devourable novel is a story readers won't be able to put down until they've tasted every last delectable page.

The Big 5-OH!:

Sandra D. Bricker is an author who makes me laugh out loud. But finding the humor in turning The Big 5-Oh? Only Bricker could make me look forward to the romance and humor of getting older. This is a fun, romantic read that you will devour, no matter what your age. --Kristin Billerbeck, Author of "What a Girl Wants"

Sandra D. Bricker writes with grace, humor and an obvious love for her characters, qualities that can be seen and felt on every page of The Big 5-Oh! Her words ring as clear as bells on Christmas morning and sound just as sweet in your ear. The Big 5-Oh! protagonist, Olivia Wallace, is used to things going wrong, but when a chance of things going right comes along, Sandra leads her down the path destined for goodness; but not before she takes a few humorous and very human turns. A great read! --Joyce Magnin, Author of "The Prayers of Agnes Sparrow"

Love Finds You in Snowball, Arkansas:

I absolutely adored Lucy, fell in love with Matt, wanted to claim all the members of the singles’ group as my new best friends, and am ready to plan a vacation in Snowball. I couldn’t put this book down. Light and fun, with gems of truth sprinkled throughout, this is a quick read and a great story. I enjoyed every paragraph.

I got this book yesterday at 2 p.m. and had completely devoured it by 1 a.m. I laughed out loud and even, at times, had tears from laughter rolling down my face. This is one of the best I have read in a while.
