Description:
“For pastry chef Yevhen, who came to help Olya Synychka repair and restore her old house, this Easter is very important because he wants to mend his relationship with his mother.
For Olya, Easter is a time of generational unity, since the recipe for the most delicious Easter bread has been passed down from her great-grandmother to her mother and now to her. Each year Synychka bakes golden Easter breads and shares them with all her loved ones. So she agrees to take part in a competition with Yevhen — the Easter Bread Tournament.
Olya does not doubt her family recipe or her own skills, even facing a professional pastry chef. But amid this intoxicating spring, she is unsure how much her heart can hold — words, feelings, and longing.
And does anyone have the right to love and be happy during war?
This is a continuation of Olya Synychka’s story that began in the novel Villa in San-Fursisko.” Fabula
