Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Times are good, and 1950s moms are hungry for pastries to serve their baby boomer families. Icky’s Cookies fly off local grocery store shelves, and with each new variety, the neighborhood is filled with the enticing aroma of Saigon cinnamon, ginger, vanilla, and molasses. Soon, national grocery chains and distributors want to buy his product, too, and Icky thinks he’s made it big in the commercial baked goods market. But just as he’s ready to expand his bakery, an editorial in the local newspaper suggests cookie “fumes” could pose a danger to nearby Marcus Park. Will all good things crumb to an end? Perhaps. Baking Second Chances is a local-guy-bakes-good story about a faithful man who follows his call to reflect God’s glory even when the world seems stacked against him—and family and friends who are willing to put their cookie-eating mouths where their hearts are.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A tough town like Olean offers a guy only so many job options: sweat in the stench of oil refinery crude, like his immigrant father does, suffer boredom in a factory job, or apprentice in a trade. Icky Haut chooses the latter and works his way up, one crumb at a time, in a commercial bread bakery. Haut loves everything about baking bread: the smell and taste of yeast, the softness of flour rubbed between fingertips, the intense heat of ovens, the anticipation of a loaf's rise, and the comfort of its promise of sustenance. But after his second child is born, he realizes he's been mixing, proofing, shaping, scoring, and baking dough half his life. Is this it? Maybe not . . . but then his great idea to expand the bakery jams him up with his boss, and he's toast. How Haut relies on family and faith to start his own bakery is the center of this real-life, local-guy-makes-good story set in the 1930s and 40s. Haut's boss calls bread the "staff of life" feeding his bottom line; the Hauts are nourished by their faith, and that shift in perspective recasts the story to hope in the "Bread of Life."

Despondently driving around the back streets of Woolloomooloo one night, Lucy happens upon an old, empty terrace that was once the city's hottest restaurant: Fortune. One minute she's peering through grimy windows into an abandoned space, the next she's planning a pop-up bistro. When Lucy fires up Fortune's old kitchen she discovers a little red recipe book that belonged to the former chef, the infamous Frankie Summers. As she cries over the ingredients for Frankie's French Onion Soup, she imagines what Fortune was like in its heyday. It's strange, Lucy can sense Frankie beside her, almost see him there ... This fiery chef, who lived with a passion for food and women in almost equal measure, just might help Lucy cook herself up a better life. But is she brave enough to believe? **INCLUDES an extract from J.D.'s new novel, The Upside of Over, publishing in July 2018**
