Book Summary:
Can a cookie really save a life? One woman is about to find out if her grandmother’s folklore is really just a recipe—or something more.
They say Christmas Wishing Cookies carry prayers straight to heaven, but for Sarah Baker, they reveal a secret she never saw coming. Experience the season’s miracle in The Baker of Christmas Wishes, a heartwarming romance from #1 Amazon Bestselling author Georgia Curtis Ling, beloved for blending faith, small-town charm, and mountain culture.
Once recognized among Asheville’s finest pastry chefs, Sarah Baker has perfected the craft of whisking dreams into reality and turned her Appalachian heritage—whisks, wooden spoons, and secret recipes passed through generations—into a thriving career. Then Hurricane Helene’s floods shattered her world, sweeping away all she’d built, leaving her soul shattered and her faith shaken. With broken dreams and her recipes, she returns to her Tennessee roots to open a fledgling cookie shop. Her last hope lies in her grandmother’s legendary Christmas Wishing Cookies, said to deliver wishes and prayers to heaven—and Sarah could use both.
Everything changes when two strangers enter her life: a mysterious boy in need of help, and the bachelor Colter Wallace, the town’s warm, quick-witted new pastor—a man she wishes for but feels unworthy of. Weaving her future with theirs will demand more than sugar and flour and good intentions. Amid the cheerful chaos of Main Street’s merry band of holiday-obsessed merchants, and her own wavering faith, Sarah must confront a secret past to become who she was meant to be. When a life-altering crisis strikes at the height of the holidays, their three paths converge in one breathless moment. In this season of miracles, she’s about to learn that redemption is not something you measure out and fold in—and while her cookies carry the wish, it is God’s grace alone that makes the miracle.
Featuring bonus holiday cookie recipes from national award-winning baker Jennifer Nystrom—These cookies are rich with the warmth of brown sugar and molasses, the festive sparkle of ginger, and the quiet sweetness of a kitchen that smells like Christmas morning—crafted to bring a little of that old mountain magic to your own table this holiday season.
