Take a bite of bittersweet with Sad Pancakes, a heartfelt and beautifully layered story about love, loss, and finding hope in the unlikeliest places.

What if everything you thought you knew about your family was a lie? What if love arrived in your darkest moments—offering healing but demanding your trust? For Grace Little, grief is like pancakes: messy, complicated, and impossible to keep together.

When Grace delivers her brother Frankie’s eulogy, she doesn’t expect to lock eyes with Brooks—a mysterious stranger in the back row who was Frankie’s best friend, though he never mentioned him. With her brother’s bracelet in hand and an invitation for pancakes, Brooks changes everything.

But Grace’s life is anything but simple. A sister spiraling into chaos, parents hiding devastating truths, and her own dangerous ways of coping threaten to tear her apart. Brooks, battling wounds of his own, becomes her unexpected lifeline—until his own secrets push him away just when she needs him most.

From late-night confessions in a broken-down RV to moments of raw vulnerability over bittersweet pancakes, Sad Pancakes takes readers on a journey through grief, healing, and the power of human connection.

Perfect for fans of Colleen Hoover and Taylor Jenkins Reid, this coming-of-age romance will make you laugh, cry, and crave the comfort of bittersweet beginnings.
