Book excerpt: "You will find my story is a lot like pie, a strawberry-rhubarb pie. It's bitter. It's messy. It's got some sweetness, too. Sometimes the ingredients get added in the wrong order, but it has substance, it will warm your insides, and even though it isn't perfect, it still turns out okay in the end." When journalist Beth M. Howard's young husband dies suddenly, she packs up the RV he left behind and hits the American highways. At every stop along the way—whether filming a documentary or handing out free slices on the streets of Los Angeles—Beth uses pie as a way to find purpose. Howard eventually returns to her Iowa roots and creates the perfect synergy between two of America's greatest icons—pie and the American Gothic House, the little farmhouse immortalized in Grant Wood's famous painting, where she now lives and runs the Pitchfork Pie Stand. Making Piece powerfully shows how one courageous woman triumphs over tragedy. This beautifully written memoir is, ultimately, about hope. It's about the journey of healing and recovery, of facing fears, finding meaning in life again, and moving forward with purpose and, eventually, joy. It's about the nourishment of the heart and soul that comes from the simple act of giving to others, like baking a homemade pie and sharing it with someone whose pain is even greater than your own. And it tells of the role of fate, second chances and the strength found in community.

Book excerpt: Savor every taste of love. At her age, Bryony Green should be considering the easiest route to her post-retirement life. Instead, she finds herself at a crossroads. She lacks the things most people take for granted—spouses, kids, professional accomplishments, and a bucket list to conquer in their retirement years—and the absence of those things has weighed upon her more with each passing year. In a not-too-distant city lives Cal Forster, a dedicated teacher whose contentment lies in shaping young minds. Teaching is more than satisfying, it’s his happy place. So, quitting to embark on a journey of “discovery” for his father leaves him unsettled. When he’s asked to be a year-long substitute to bail out a sick friend, he jumps at the chance to fall back into what feels familiar, fulfilling. Each grappling with personal and professional voids, Bryony and Cal meet in a serendipitous encounter that alters their perspectives on life. Bryony, guarded from past disappointments, and Cal, initially unsettled by his detour, discover a connection that transcends their one-year time frame. As they navigate obstacles together, be it in the pursuit of personal fulfillment or overcoming professional challenges, they find solace in unexpected places… perhaps, most notably, over shared moments of peace and pie. A heartwarming tale of identity, growth, and connection, Peace of Pie explores the transformative power of chance encounters, demonstrating that sometimes life's detours can lead to the most unexpected and fulfilling destinations.

Book excerpt: "Mix in one part Diane Mott ­Davidson’s delightful culinary adventures with several tablespoons of Jan Karon’s country living and quirky characters, bake at 350 degrees for one rich and warm romance." --Library Journal A full-hearted novel about a big-city baker who discovers the true meaning of home—and that sometimes the best things are found when you didn’t even know you were looking When Olivia Rawlings—pastry chef extraordinaire for an exclusive Boston dinner club—sets not just her flambéed dessert but the entire building alight, she escapes to the most comforting place she can think of—the idyllic town of Guthrie, Vermont, home of Bag Balm, the country’s longest-running contra dance, and her best friend Hannah. But the getaway turns into something more lasting when Margaret Hurley, the cantankerous, sweater-set-wearing owner of the Sugar Maple Inn, offers Livvy a job. Broke and knowing that her days at the club are numbered, Livvy accepts. Livvy moves with her larger-than-life, uberenthusiastic dog, Salty, into a sugarhouse on the inn’s property and begins creating her mouthwatering desserts for the residents of Guthrie. She soon uncovers the real reason she has been hired—to help Margaret reclaim the inn’s blue ribbon status at the annual county fair apple pie contest. With the joys of a fragrant kitchen, the sound of banjos and fiddles being tuned in a barn, and the crisp scent of the orchard just outside the front door, Livvy soon finds herself immersed in small town life. And when she meets Martin McCracken, the Guthrie native who has returned from Seattle to tend his ailing father, Livvy comes to understand that she may not be as alone in this world as she once thought. But then another new arrival takes the community by surprise, and Livvy must decide whether to do what she does best and flee—or stay and finally discover what it means to belong. Olivia Rawlings may finally find out that the life you want may not be the one you expected—it could be even better.
