Meet Kate Cooke. 🥖✨📜 A baker’s daughter, with flour-dusted hands and a fire kindling in her soul. Humble. Hopeful. And hungry for something more.

Born in the warmth of Cooke’s Bakery, with flour on her hands and salt in her lungs, she grew up between rising loaves and the lull of the sea. Titchfield is all she’s ever known — a village of cobbled streets and the steady pulse of tradition.

In Chapter One: The Warmth of Dough and Dreams, Kate’s world shifts with the arrival of a letter bearing the Weatherby crest. Through the scent of cinnamon and sea brine, across oceans and expectations, The Cook traces one young woman’s journey from the safety of legacy to the uncertainty of self-made purpose.
