Bread and Bloodlines

For most of her life, Rose has survived without a name that mattered. Raised in an orphanage and determined to remain independent, she pours everything she has into a small bakery that barely keeps its doors open.
When Rose discovers she is pregnant after a night she can barely remember, the ground beneath her begins to shift. Before she can process the news, two women arrive claiming to be her grandmothers, and revealing that Rose is the missing heir to a powerful family fortune rooted in wine, food, and legacy.
Her sudden reappearance threatens a carefully arranged inheritance that has already been promised to another daughter. As rival claims emerge and long-buried secrets surface, Rose is drawn into a world of wealth, influence, and expectations she never sought. But claiming her inheritance means confronting painful truths about abandonment, motherhood, and the cost of belonging.
In a battle between bloodlines and self-definition, Rose must decide whether she will be claimed or whether she will claim herself.
