The Baker's Wife Review & #giveaway

To save her husband and son, Audrey Bofinger must rescue her enemy.

The Bofinger family has lost their church ministry in a scandal exposed by Officer Jack Mansfield. Hoping to heal and to restore their reputation, Audrey, Geoff, and their son Ed take over a failing bakery in the small community.

Driving to the bakery one morning, blinded by fog, Audrey hits a motor scooter owned by Jack’s wife, Julie. The mangled scooter is crushed and bloody. But Julie is nowhere to be found. Her disappearance coincides with a sudden illness that nearly cripples Audrey.

Jack believes the Bofingers have hurt Julie to take revenge on him, but the evidence dries up and her trail goes cold. At a breaking point, Jack takes the tiny bakery and its patrons hostage, issuing only one demand: Audrey has six hours to return Julie to him, or lose Geoff and Ed forever.

With only an excruciating and intuitive gift, an ex-con, and Julie’s estranged daughter to help search for clues, Audrey starts the search of her life for a woman who has vanished like the fog.

My Review:

4 out of 5 stars!!!  I found myself drawn into the story line within the first chapter, which I loved!  I am the type of person that really appreciates being able to be captured by a story quickly.  I loved the detailed plot and all the twist and turns of the story.  The characters felt approachable and it was easy to relate to each of them not only because of their positive qualities, but also their negative qualities as well.  I really enjoyed Audrey and Diane as I personally could relate to them the most.  The Baker's Wife easily discusses topics of sin, repentance, and forgiveness while entertaining with a wonderful thriller!
