Love, Lies and Lemon Pies, the debut YA novel from Katy Cannon, is the perfect s
ummer read for fans of Sarah Dessen and Louise Rennison. With a Bake Club recipe
at the start of each chapter, this book perfectly captures the current appetite
for all things baking! Sixteen-year-old Lottie is on a mission to protect her b
iggest secret, and it'll take every lie and every baking trick she can muster. S
ince her dad died, life hasn't been the same for Lottie.
When the school sugg
ests she joins Bake Club to get her back on track, Lottie reluctantly agrees. Th
e alternative - the school paying her mum a home visit - is not an option. But L
ottie's uncertainty about Bake Club melts away as she rekindles her love of baki
ng and gets caught up with Mac, school rebel and another unwilling Bake Club mem
ber.
As the end-of-year Bake Off approaches, the tension rises. Can Lottie ke
ep up the facade of her perfect life? And can her bubbling romance with Mac surv
ive the pressure? "A delightful, delicious and feather-light YA romance that sti
ll manages to deal beautifully with some deep issues." Robin Stevens, author of
Murder Most Unladylike
