Ladies’ Own Bakery Season 1

The four Misses Bickering are too stubborn to marry unless it’s for love.

They have just enough money to rent a bakery in Leicester Square, where bohemian earls rub elbows with ladies of the night, and all manner of people in between.

To earn a living, they have to stick together — and as their name implies, that isn’t easy!

Meet Anna, Jane, Emery and Rose. None of them are married, and each one has different dreams.

Anna still longs for the life of drawing rooms and lace; she hasn’t given up her dreams of a fine marriage even though her life now is very different. Jane has never met a man who didn’t disappoint her, and wants the till full of good, solid coins. Emery has never planned to marry a man and won’t start now; what she loves is making rich, savory bread in the sisters’ new bakery. And Rose has yet to dream dreams of her own — but she starts now!

Mystery men, men who leap into the bakery, men in ruffled collars and men who are rude, drunken men and men working on the road… and many kinds of women! Leicester Square bustles with all types of life and the Misses Bickering are in the middle of it all. It’s the last days of the wars with France and America, political movements are surging, prices are soaring, and these ladies are determined to make their bakery pay. If they’re going to marry, it’s only for love.

Ladies’ Own Bakery is a Regency romance and a comedy serial – with happily ever afters on the far horizon. Like a sitcom, each “episode” is meant to be a fun short read, but with ongoing characters and storylines.

Season 3 begins Jan. 2025.

Description

Get yours now!

Ladies’ Own Bakery is a Regency romance in the form of a comedy serial! Season One concluded in July 2022, and Season Two is also complete. We’d love to have you join us in this light, funny story about four sisters finding lives and loves of their own in 1813 Leicester Square.

Because LOB is a serial, the plotlines don’t “wrap up” at the end of every episode, or even every season. Just brace yourself!

Claim your own copy of episodes 1 & 2, free to keep, and if you enjoy it, pick up the collected episodes of Season One. Perhaps even follow it with Season Two – yes, it’s out.

And if you claim your own copy of those first two episodes — or even if you just sign up for my newsletter here and say “Yes, I want Ladies’ Own Bakery!” — future “episodes” will come free and first to you as one of my LOB mailing list subscribers. Season Three starts January 2025!

Happily Ever Afters are on their way, but only after many twists and turns. These four sisters have very different views on life and love, and not everyone in Leicester Square is out to help them along…

Questions?

Is it free? Yep, newsletter subscribers get all future episodes free. When “episodes” are releasing, they go to interested subscribers first and free. After a “season” is complete, the collected volume will be up for sale. So get your free episodes 1 & 2 and you’ll be signed up!

But can I buy “back episodes” to catch up? Yep! The collected Season 1 is available for sale, as is Season 2. (Individual episodes are available for sale at shop.judithlynne.com if you really missed one altogether!)

Will that be the whole story? No! There are four seasons planned and trust me, you wouldn’t count any love story in this serial as “done” at the end of Season 1!

I heard there was merch? OMG such beautiful merch! You can get some lovely things (for yourself or someone else) with Sarah Kil’s beautiful wheat-and-Jacobin-floral-print cover design! I’m particularly partial to the huge tote bag… and the duffle bag… and the scarf… and the spiral-bound notebook… and the zippered pouch… and the travel mug… Oh, and the stickers! (And the jigsaw puzzle!)

I got the episode and I need to talk now! There is a Ladies’ Own Bakery group on Facebook, where you can chat about the last episode or just put your feet up and socialize for a while, just as we would if we were in the Ladies’ Own Bakery.
