Publisher Description
A brand new cosy novel from best-selling author Debbie Johnson.
Welcome to the cosy Comfort Food Café, where there's kindness in every cup of hot chocolate and the menu is sprinkled with love and happiness…
Moving to the little village of Budbury, Zoe hopes the crisp Dorset sea breeze and gentle pace of life will be a fresh start for her and her goddaughter, Martha.
Luckily for them both, the friendly community at the café provide listening ears, sage advice, shoulders to cry on, and some truly excellent carrot cake. And when Martha's enigmatic, absent father suddenly turns up, confusing not only Martha but Zoe too, the love and support of their new-found friends is the best present they could ask for.
Have Zoe and Martha truly found their home at the Comfort Food Café?

APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
Debbie Johnson’s Comfort Food Café series is always a recipe for a delightful read: a sprinkling of wit, a dash of pathos and a generous spoonful of compassion. This third addition perfectly balances those ingredients in a cosy winter read. When Zoe’s best friend passes away she becomes guardian to Kate’s sweet-hearted but grief-stricken teenage daughter Martha. Together they move to Devon in search of a new start and find the Comfort Food Café, which quickly feels like home. Johnson’s kind-hearted (and often wacky) characters filled us with life-affirming warmth as Zoe and Martha find hope for the future once again.
