In this NY Moments  bestseller, two ladies in different eras encounter similar life-altering decisions, the politics of exclusion, the awful choices we encounter in wartime, and the redemptive power of like.

In 1945, Elsie Schmidt is normally a naive teenager, as looking forward to her initial sip of champagne as she actually is for her initial kiss. But Reba discovers herself time for the bakery over and over, anxious to get the center of the tale—a tale that resonates with her very own turbulent past.

Sixty years later on, in El Paso, Texas, Reba Adams is wanting to document a feel-good Xmas piece for the neighborhood magazine, and she sits down with who owns Elsie’s German Bakery for what she expects will become an easy interview. Therefore when an escaped Jewish boy arrives on Elsie’s doorstep on Xmas Eve, Elsie realizes that opening the entranceway would place all she enjoys in peril. She and her family members have been shielded from the most severe of the terror and desperation overtaking her nation by a high-position Nazi who desires to marry her. For Elsie, Reba’s queries certainly are a stinging reminder of this last bleak season of World Battle II.

As both women’s lives become intertwined, both are pressured to confront the unpleasant truths of days gone by and look for the courage to forgive.
