Journalist Reba Adams, trying to file a feel-good Christmas piece for the local El Paso magazine, must interview the owner of Elsie's German Bakery--and she's no easy subject. Reba finds herself returning to the bakery again and again, anxious to find the heart of the story. For Elsie, Reba's questions are a stinging reminder of darker times: her life in Germany during that last bleak year of WWII. And as Elsie's, Reba's, and Reba's fiance' Riki Chavez's lives become more intertwined, all are forced to confront the uncomfortable truths of the past and seek out the courage to forgive.
