Livvy moves to Guthrie, an old hick town in Vermont after she sets fire with her Baked Alaska dessert in an elite country club in Boston. She goes at the bequest of her good friend Hannah, and she finds herself a job at an inn with cantankerous Margaret. With a new hair color every week, Livvy sticks out, and even her reputation as both a fantastic baker and one who "shares her desserts" (G rated version for those of you who can read between the lines) has made Guthrie news quickly. So, the drama rests on 1. Baking the most delicious apple pie to win the county fair, 2. The obvious romantic interest of Martin, and 3. The desire to find family that she never had. There were some cute parts, but maybe since I'm not super excited about banjo concerts or the doe-si-does, I can't say this will go on my super-excited to read list (if I had one, which maybe I should now).
