About this listen

Award-winning jam-maker Aggie is determined to take her Barossa Valley cafe to new heights. She has put the pain of failed IVF treatment and a broken relationship behind her and is focused on the many wonderful possibilities life still holds in store.

When an invitation to travel across Australia on the Ghan for her mother's seventieth birthday comes her way, she is at first apprehensive. But the trip offers a precious opportunity to spend some quality time with both her disgruntled mother, Valeria, and her distant daughter, Holly, and her meddling great-aunt Myrtle. The four generations of the family, all single women, would be reunited at last.

As the iconic train chugs its way beneath majestic desert skies, Aggie's difficult past resurfaces, her business comes under threat, and long-held family rifts reignite. To complicate things further, she's distracted by the attentions of a handsome younger man on his own search for meaning in some of the country's most remote and magical places.

By the bestselling author of The Cake Maker's Wish, this is a sweet and soulful story about women being there for each other through the stickiest situations. It celebrates the joys and sorrows of life, and reveals the essential ingredients for the true recipe for happiness.©2021 Josephine Moon (P)2021 Penguin Random House Australia

Fantastic Read!

I loved this book and all the wonderful characters. The Narrator did a great job getting you inside the minds of four generations of four very interesting women with their own life stories to tell.
I highly recommend this book and didn't want it to end.

Pretty cheesy

It was ok, pretty cheesy and a bit trite. If you're wanting a nice easy read, this is for you. Just not really my cup of tea.
