Eat Cake by Jeanne Ray

Ruth learned in a stress seminar to imagine herself in a relaxing place. Unlike most who picture themselves on a beach, Ruth sees herself inside a cake.

She's been baking cakes since she was 8. It's her way of dealing with stress. Unfortunately, her family doesn't appreciate her cakes. After all, she bakes them almost everyday.

To add to her already stressful life of raising two teenagers, she finds out she is going to have to take care of her father who just got injured in an accident. But that's not the worst part, her mom, divorced from her dad since she was two already lives with her and now she'll be in the middle of the squabbling parents.

Then, her husband loses his job.

Will the family pull together and make it? Will cake be part of the solution?

Read this humorous look at a common situation many of us are living in our daily lives.

I enjoyed this book because I can relate to it on a few levels. I also have two teenagers at home. I don't have aging parents, but I have a home based business.

I like the way the family works together to start the home based business. It may or may not be realistic, but it had elements of truth on how to market your home based business.

I haven't read a novel in years, but stumbled upon this while on vacation in Florida. It only took me a few days to read and I enjoyed the happy ending.

I look forward to reading the other books by Jeanne Ray.
