And Why does the 21st Century need them…?
I’m counting down the weeks and days until my brand new novel, The Cake Fairies – Book Number 5… sometimes I have to pinch myself as I have no idea where the words even come from, other than a random and invisible muse-style cloud in the sky! – hits kindles and bookshelves far and wide.
An exciting time, and also a nerve-wracking one, although early reviews have been really quite jolly.
“She writes so well painting pictures and tastes and textures of food with her words. They are an indulgent pleasure to read.”
“It is a truly delicious, delectable storyline which incorporates mouthwatering scrumptious creations of cakes together with a spellbinding feel. Loved it!”
“Another delectable offering from foodie fiction author Isabella May. Every one of her books is a gastronomic dip into rich humorous drama and light fun antics, topped with a sprinkling of magic and meaning. And The Cake Fairies is no exception!”
Phew.
But who are The Cake Fairies? And why does the world, or more to the point, Great Britain, even need them?
Well, here’s the blurb (read cheat’s version of my explanation):
1960’s Somerset is no fun for cousins Polly and Annabelle Williams. Mourning their non-existent love lives, and the mundanity of village life, their only pleasure is baking – until a chance encounter has them magically transported to the bright lights of London… in 2019! Promised a chance of love, first they must teach the people of the future about the simpler pleasures of life by becoming Cake Fairies. Over the course of a year they set off on a delectable tour of the UK, dropping off cakes in the most unexpected of places and replacing the lure of technology with much sweeter temptations.But will their philanthropical endeavours lead them to everlasting love? Or will they discover you can’t have your cake and eat it?
The simplest way to sum The Cake Fairies up is to call them foodie versions of The Book Fairies. Their mission is to spread joy by the crumb and get people back in the present!
