With her aunt Addie, diner cook extraordinaire, she’s traveled the States and honed her waitressing skills, impressing hungry people everywhere. But following the tides of comfort food dining means Hope never gets to stay in one place very long, and that’s tough.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis latest move threatens to be the hardest yet, leaving the excitement of New York City to run a diner in rural Wisconsin. Hope doesn’t expect to feel at home there, just as she doesn’t expect to get caught up in town politics. But her occupation has taught her to read people, and instinct tells her to trust G. T. Stoop, the straight-shooting owner of the Welcome Stairways diner, whose leukemia makes his entry into a heated mayoral race a surprise to everyone. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhat follows—as Hope meets politics, corruption, and her past head-on—is at the heart of this memorable, laugh-out-loud story about honor, trust, and serving up your very best. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAN ALA NOTABLE BOOK • WINNER OF THE CHRISTOPHER AWARD \u003c\/b\u003e","brand":"Puffin Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43382756868351,"sku":"9780142404249","price":12.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0452\/0886\/2873\/files\/9780142404249_s600x595.jpg?v=1776096268","url":"https:\/\/massivebookshop.com\/de\/products\/9780142404249","provider":"MASSIVE BOOKSHOP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
