<p>"I would welcome a friendship with Lynne Hinton. I would welcome an invitation to sit down at her table, but mostly I would welcome her next book."<br />--Maya Angelou<p></p></p> <p> </p></p>Lynne Hinton's beloved bestselling classic, <em>Friendship Cake, </em> is a beautiful, poignant, and funny novel of five small-town women friends that offers inspiring life lessons in faith, love, strength, survival, and community--as well as a host of delicious Southern recipes! A heartwarming delight reminiscent of Jan Karon's <em>New York Times </em>bestselling Mitford books, <em>Friendship Cake</em>, in the words of Rita Mae Brown (<em>Rubyfruit Jungle</em>), "will give you plenty to chew over. Delicious!" <p/>
