Publisher Description
'I absolutely loved this book!' Maxine Morrey Daisy’s life is going nowhere, but that’s just how she likes it.
Unable to move on from the tragic accident that killed her parents ten years ago, she’s living each day as it comes. After all, what’s the point of plans and dreams if one random event can rip them all from you? She’s quite comfortable with her dead-end job and her lacklustre love life, thank you.
When she and her sister inherit a run-down café from a distant relative, her first instinct is to sell it. She doesn’t know anything about running a business, so the idea of taking it on and trying to turn it around is way too much of a risk. However, chef Matt has other ideas, and it’s not long before his infectious passion for the place starts to rub off on her.
Will she be able to save the café, or will the café end up saving her?
A feel-good romance perfect for fans of Catherine Walsh, Milly Johnson and Sophie Kinsella.

*Finding her Passion*
After a truly painful tragedy that robbed Daisy and her younger sister of their parents overnight, they are then taken in by their grandparents. Daisy starts to go off the rails until her grandparents intervene. A few years later she is working as an accountant with a geeky boyfriend that has never grown up.
She wonders how or where her life will pan out. Out of the blue she gets a phone call about a relative that has left her & her sister a substantial inheritance which includes a cafe that has seen better days. As her sister has another year before she is 18 Daisy takes up the responsibility.
On the surface she thinks that the easiest thing to do is to sell the cafe and run. That all changes when she meets the chef. He is passionate about the cafe as he sees the potential which Daisy does not share. On reflection she decides to dive in, will it swallow her up whole or can she turn it around?
This was a cute story although some of it felt like a guilty pleasure, I loved it.
