Marina Adair delivers again with a story full of heart and likeable characters in a West Coast small town setting. And lord knows I love a story that revolves around a bakery. I knocked this down to 3 stars rather than 4 because of the pretty terrible caricature of a Latina woman at the beginning. I get what Adair was doing (comedic effect, making an unlikeable character), but there are so many ways to achieve those effects without relying on stereotypes and making fun of accents.
