About this listen
When Lily McDermott walks in to find her husband of just three months in bed with a famous actress, life as she knows it is over. Lily thinks things can't get any worse when she sees photos of her husband and his new lover splashed across the glossy magazine pages, but when she loses her job, too, she is at her lowest ebb and turns to baking to soothe her soul.
Wounded and broken, she has to try to pick herself up again with the help of her best friend, Frankie. With her encouragement, Lily decides to turn her hobby into a business and sets up Baked with Love. However, whatever Lily does, it seems disaster soon ensues....
When a handsome stranger comes to her rescue, Lily isn't quite ready to turn her back on her marriage. Can she risk opening her heart again, or is she destined to allow Marc to overshadow her life forever?

Not for me
Dire and unbelievable - gave it 2 hours mainly as I love the narrator. But the characters were just irritating so had to give up

Absolutely loved this book
No surprise, a pretty usual premise, heartbroken woman meets gorgeous hunk, but with a twist. Down to earth and current, a great listen with some laughs and tears. All beautifully brought to life by the narrator with a gorgeous relaxing Irish accent.
A brilliant lesson

The innocent main character's good nature
The old catholic view of marriage, that a failed marriage was shameful, and the idea that it was a major barrier to a future relationship.

Just fab
I enjoyed this book so much.
Izzy Bayliss has really created som great characters, that bring out all the emotions…Lily doesn’t always make the right decisions ( sometimes you want to shake her) her sister is OTT and totally entitled , the husband a right b’ word. Then some nicer ones come along the way…
Great narration

Very twee
I listened to this to the end but not sure why as it made me feel slightly nauseated throughout. Very predictable and annoying characters

I loved it!
Easy listening. Funny, heart breaking and love affirming. Just the way you want everything to work out for the slightly dippy, yet totally lovable heroine. You can’t help but be on her side.

Well written story and good narration.
Loved the story but very disappointed in the quick ending. So much more could have been written.
