Fruitcake by Fran

Old Timey Holiday Kitchen, Book 28

De: Janice Cole Hopkins

Narrado por: Jennifer Groberg

Francisca Guinn learned to bake and make fruitcakes from her deceased mother, who had worked at the Collin Street Bakery. Fran had changed the recipe to suit her tastes, but she sold them during the holidays to make extra money. When she meets Trent Jones, she tries not to give him special attention because most Texans don't like her Mexican heritage on her mother's side. However, as he remains persistent, she begins to wonder if he might be different, but will his high-society parents accept her?

Great story

I love this story and how it ended! I do hope there just may be a follow-up to it!! :)

Family

This is a wonderful story. I love all of the characters. Great moral story too. A Christian book that is not preachy.

The Perfect Love Story

My first book of 2024 was listening to Fruitcake by Fran and it was a wonderful story for the new year. Everyone loves Fran’s fruitcake. The original recipe was her mothers, but over the years she added her own touches. Fran, literally runs into Trent and they are both stunned. They meet again when she works a party at his parents house. His mother only treats her as a servant, as Fran is part Mexican, but her heritage doesn’t matter to him. Trent is so taken with Fran. There is trouble too, from Fran’s friend, Javier. He is jealous of Trent. Time will soon help with all these issues. A wonderful story for the new year.
I was given a copy of the book by the author, for an honest review.

Christian Historical Romance

This was a great audiobook! I loved the story of a poor mixed race woman who meets a rich white banker. Despite all the differences between them, their connection is too strong to resist. Unfortunately problems come up to break them apart!
The narration was excellent too!

Sweet Romance

This was a sweet romance with some twists and turns that challenge Trent and Fran. But with God's help the work through the troubles they face. I love the way the inspirational part of this author's books is so nicely woven into the story without being preachy. This was another great listen and I always enjoy this author.

The narration is good and makes it an easy listen.
