Inspired by the real-life Black “window vendors” who sold meals through train windows in the late 1800s—and guided by the Holy Spirit’s nudge to honor their courage—this novel blends history, humor, danger, romance, and faith into one unforgettable journey. In 1890, a fearless group of plus-size cooks turns a simple train-side food hustle into a movement that transforms a town. Each morning they race the whistle, dodge railroad agents, calm police dogs with fried chicken, slip past jealous competitors, and pray their skirts don’t get caught in wagon spokes or too close to moving trains. Their courage, laughter, and faith build a reputation that reaches far beyond Biscuitville. Everything changes when a mysterious newcomer arrives with a God-given assignment. A rundown bakery becomes the center of miracles—home, business, and a place where dreams rise along with the dough. But new blessings bring new battles: railroad crackdowns, town gossip, rising threats, unexpected romance, and spiritual warfare they never saw coming. Through it all, their strength becomes a testimony of what God can build from almost nothing. This book includes: • A historical preface honoring the real window vendors • The full narrative of the fictional Biscuitville cooks and their miraculous rise • The 1890 Biscuitville Women’s Recipes (fried chicken, cathead biscuits, sweet tea, hand pies, and more) • 1890's tools, measurements, and authentic 1890 kitchen notes • A Faith-Based Book Club Edition with scriptures and reflection questions • How to start a book club • How to start a farmers market • Prayers, declarations, a healing prayer, a sinner’s prayer, and “what to do next” for new believers • Entrepreneurship resources for women building businesses through faith and courage Fast-paced, funny, romantic, and faith-filled, this story celebrates the forgotten women who fed travelers, supported families, built community, and trusted God to multiply the work of their hands. Disclaimer: This novel is a work of fiction inspired by historical events. Characters, settings, and incidents are dramatized for entertainment and educational purposes. Recipes, prayers, and business resources are inspirational only, not professional advice. Treat yourself or someone you love to a faith-filled, plus-size romance adventure. These novels make a meaningful gift for any occasion—birthdays, holidays, church events, or “just because.” Each book includes 1890 recipes, guides on starting a farmers market and a book club, and a simple sinner’s prayer with steps on what to do next. A beautiful blend of history, hope, and heart. See more humor filled books by the author at:: https://www.amazon.com/author/plussizewomensbooks Plus Size Women Books™ faithbasednovels.com
