โฆ Synopsis
Against overwhelming odds, can she save her legacy?
Amid the bustling vibrancy of Auckland's Karangahape Road Gwenna Price is troubled. For all her youth, she is now the master confectioner in the family business since her father died. She promised to fulfil her Pa's dreams and open a shop, but with her domineering and incompetent stepbrother Elias in charge, the operation is on the brink of collapse.
Gwenna is a plucky young woman with uncommon ambition. She is determined to save her legacy. Despite the obstacles put in her way, and throughout the twists and turns of love and tragedy, Gwenna is irrepressible. She refuses to relinquish her dreams and lets nothing stand in her way. But blind to anything that distracts her, Gwenna risks losing the one person who matters most.
Winner of an IndieBRAG Award , a Chill with a Book Readers' Award and a Gold Standard Quality Mark.
