Publisher's Summary:
Jennie Copeland thought she knew the recipe for a happy life: marriage to her university sweetheart, a nice house in the suburbs and three beautiful children. But when her husband leaves her, she is forced to find a different recipe. And she thinks she's found just what she needs: a ramshackle house on the outskirts of the beautiful Talyton St George, a new cake-baking business, a dog, a horse, chickens.... But life in the country is not quite as idyllic as she'd hoped, and Jennie can't help wondering whether neighbouring farmer Guy Barnes is the missing ingredient.

Charming novel
The Sweetest Thing by Cathy Woodman is a fun and sweet book that I really enjoyed. It has all the elements I enjoy like family drama, a little romance, and just plain old good and easy reading.
Jennieâs life is great. She has three beautiful kids and a husband she loves. All is well until her husband David tells her he is leaving her for another woman. Instead of completely wallowing in her misery she decides instead to follow a dream of her own.
She buys a ramshackle old house out on a farm in Talyton St. George and heads out there with her kids who are none too happy about it. Jennie is going to start her own business. She loves to bake cakes and she is finally going to go after that dream and open Jennieâs Cakes. The only problem is the town is set in their ways and getting a new business started may be a bit of a struggle and then of course there is her very attractive neighbor Guy. Hold it though Jennie is done with men! Or is she?
Oh the drama! Between her kids, the new farm animals, and a man Jennie doesnât know which end is up. I liked Jennie except for the fact that she let herself be walked over by her jerk of a ex-husband for too many years. Other than that though I liked how she took a risk with her life when she moved her family out to nowhere land. Then there is Guy who is the kind of man most women would be ga-ga over, including me. And the town â I loved the sound of it with farmers markets and bake sales and having to barter for things you want instead of using money. It sounded like a cute and quirky town where it would be wonderful to settle in and live.
The Sweetest Thing was a delightful novel. It was light, fun reading and it was just what I needed â to relax and just enjoy a good story!
Women can sympathize....
I have to say this book really wasn't my cup of tea, but was happy I read it.In some women's lifetime,men walk out and say the same garbage I need to find myself,I don't love you or it just happened.... really?Women are lucky we have an inner strength and we are fearless.We take care of our children and begin again. Jeannie is a strong mother determine to make her dreams come true and also take care of her 3 kids.Along the way she meet Guy her handsome neighbor.What ensues is a testament..there is love after divorce and not all men are pathetic,parasitic animals. It's a must read if your looking for something wholesome and beautiful!! Disclaimer,beware of nosey busybodies(FiFi..lol). Would recommend it to strong moms!!
Story is great, characters ... not so much
I love novels about English people moving to the country and trying to make a go of it, so the premise of this book was right up my alley.
