Finding Mr Right and saying 'yes' was just the beginning...Nicole has a wedding to organise, but first she has a cake to bake. After listening to her closest friends' latest troubles, bride-to-be Nicole believes she has the perfect recipe for everyone's happiness. So she sets to work on a hen party "cake pull" in which each ribboned silver charm planted in her cake will bring its recipient the magic she needs to change her destiny. Melissa, still ringless after dating the same man for six years, deserves the engagement ring charm. The red hot chilli pepper would be perfect for Seema, who is in love with her best friend Scott, but can't seem to make their relationship more than platonic. And out-of-work journalist Nicole wants the shovel, which symbolizes hard work, to help her get her career back on track. But when the charmed cake is mysteriously shifted from the place settings Nicole arranged, no one gets the charm she chose for them. And when the other party guests' fortunes begin coming true, Mel, Seema, and Nicole can't help but wonder...Is the cake trying to tell them something? *Please note that this is the UK edition - in the US, the title of this book is 'There's Cake in My Future'*
