The Magic of Lemon Drop Pie 🍋🥧
by Rachel Linden
5/5 ⭐️
“When life gives you lemons🍋, make lemonade.” Lolly Blanchard has been trying to turn lemons into lemonade for the last 10 years. Her life did not go as planned after her mother’s tragic death. She deserted her dreams of owning her own restaurant to manage her family’s diner and make lemon meringue pies. She let the love of her life go because she needed to care for her grieving father and sister. Life is sweet but Lolly’s decisions are leaving a sour aftertaste.
On Lolly’s 33rd birthday, she is given three lemon drop candies from her Aunt Gert. The gift is odd but so is Aunt Gert! Aunt Gert explains that these are not ordinary candies, by eating one Lolly will have the chance to live a day in the life she wished for. Lolly uses all three lemon drops to explore her lost hopes and dreams. Each experience opens Lolly’s eyes and heart to her potential. Lolly is overcome with grit and realizes the past is unchangeable but the future has endless possibilities.
I’m not sure when I added this book to my tbr, but I wish I had read it sooner. This book is a contemporary fiction/2nd chance romance that spoke to me on so many levels. The hopefulness and positivity radiating out of the pages are amazing! Reading this book I got goosebumps, I cried, I laughed and I simply nodded my head in agreement. Everyone needs an Aunt Gert! She was my favorite character with her words of wisdom. I highly recommend this book as it will leave you feeling refreshed but gooey inside.
