<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"Fall in love with The Simplicity of Cider, the charming new novel about a prickly but gifted cider-maker whose quiet life is interrupted by the arrival of a handsome man and his young son at her family's careworn orchard by the author of The Coincidence of Coconut Cake and Luck, Love & Lemon Pie. Focused and unassuming fifth generation cider-maker Sanna Lund has one desire: to live a simple, quiet life on her family's apple orchard in Door County, Wisconsin. Although her business is struggling, Sanna remains fiercely devoted to the orchard, despite her brother's attempts to convince their aging father to sell the land. Single dad Isaac Banks has spent years trying to shield his son Sebastian from his troubled mother. Fleeing heartbreak at home, Isaac packed up their lives and the two headed out on an adventure, driving across the country. Chance--or fate--led them straight to Sanna's orchard. Isaac's helping hands are much appreciated at the apple farm, even more when Sanna's father is injured in an accident. As Sanna's formerly simple life becomes increasingly complicated, she finds solace in unexpected places--friendship with young Sebastian and something more deliciously complex with Isaac--until an outside threat infiltrates the farm. From the warm and funny Amy E. Reichert, The Simplicity of Cider is a charming love story with a touch of magic, perfect for fans of Sarah Addison Allen and Gayle Forman"--<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>Fall in love with <i>The Simplicity of Cider</i>, the charming new novel about a prickly but gifted cider-maker whose quiet life is interrupted by the arrival of a handsome man and his young son at her family's careworn orchard by the author of <i>The Coincidence of Coconut Cake</i> and <i>Luck, Love & Lemon Pie</i>.</b> <p/>Focused and unassuming fifth generation cider-maker Sanna Lund has one desire: to live a simple, quiet life on her family's apple orchard in Door County, Wisconsin.

This will give you more fuzzy feelings than you can count."-- "Redbook"<br><br>"Have you discovered Amy E. Reichert yet? This month she released her third book, <i>The Simplicity of Cider</i>, and I'm happy to say it is another terrific read. I loved how Reichert solved some of the major conflicts with ingenuity and heart. I loved how the characters made some crazy mistakes, but that they owned them and didn't expect the people around them to readily forgive them, but when the time came for forgiveness, it was available and earned. I loved the amazing apple tree that was the heart and soul of the orchard. I loved the book's hint of magic and the slight softening of the characters' attitudes as they began to look for solutions and help from each other. And, of course, the book has a strong food theme, which Reichert is celebrated for. If you haven't read Amy Reichert yet, I highly recommend you check her out."-- "Bobbi Dumas, Kirkus Reviews"<br><br>"Highly recommended that you eat before reading this book...a light, fun read that feels a bit like eating dessert for dinner."-- "RT Book Reviews"<br><br>"I enjoyed all the quaint details about the food and Midwest settings...

The sprinkle of Wisconsin pride is icing on an already irresistable cake.

Reichert writes like your best friend and reading her words is like having that friend whisper them into your ear. <i>The Coincidence of the Coconut Cake</i> is a delicious story of food, love, and a wink at what people will do to have their cake and eat it, too.--Ann Garvin, author of THE DOG YEAR and MAGGIE'S WATCH<br><br>Amy Reichert brings sweetness and substance to her delicious debut.
