All That She Can See

by Carrie Hope Fletcher

THE TOP THREE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLING NOVEL FROM CARRIE HOPE FLETCHER, THE STAR OF THE ADDAMS FAMILY MUSICAL!

A story of love, food and a little bit of magic, All That She Can See is an enchanting and beautiful novel that's guaranteed to be the most magical story you'll read all year.

Feelings are part of life - feelings are life. If you take away what people feel, you take away anything meaningful. Wanting to diminish the evil in this world is a good cause, one I have fought for the majority of my life, but not like this . . .

Cherry has a hidden talent. She can see things other people can't and she decided a long time ago to use this skill to help others. As far as the rest of the town is concerned she's simply the kind-hearted young woman who runs the local bakery, but in private she uses her gift to add something special to her cakes so that after just one mouthful the townspeople start to feel better about their lives. They don't know why they're drawn to Cherry's bakery - they just know that they're safe there and that's how Cherry likes it. She can help them in secret and no one will ever need to know the truth behind her gift.

And then Chase turns up and threatens to undo all the good Cherry has done. Because it turns out she's not the only one who can see what she sees . . .

not sure what this was doing Cherry can see people's bad emotions and in her baking can alleviate them, sometimes this is successful, sometimes not so successful. She has set up bakeries in a few places and once the place has improved she has moved on. Now she's in Plymouth and things are about to get more complicated. One of the people living there with her can see good emotions and knows that too much of a good thing could be harmful. As if that wasn't enough conflict; a secret agency meets the two and declares that they have to give up their abilities for the good of everyone. But their motives appear somewhat cloudy and things take several turns.
It's a bit of a muddle and I wasn't quite sure where things were going a lot of the time. I felt like there were several good stories that could be fleshed out better in this single story and somehow I wasn't feeling it.
