A planner at heart, Grace finds the courage to step outside her comfort zone during a trip to Paris that broadens her perspective and challenges her to try new things. Back home, Grace uses her newfound courage and culinary skills to start her own French baking business with her two best friends. Learning to combine their talents, Grace and her friends mix together some great ideas that, ultimately, lead to many sweet rewards.

Grace has big summer plans — starting a business with her friends, Ella and Maddy. When Mom announces a trip to Paris, Grace gets on board, but her trip isn’t all she hoped it would be. She and her French cousin aren’t hitting it off, and Grace’s friends back home have started a business without her. Can Grace step out of her comfort zone, try a few new things, and come up with a successful idea on her own?

As Grace starts a baking business with her two best friends, she quickly learns that working with friends isn’t always easy. Neither is owning a dog— especially one like Bonbon, who is having trouble adjusting to her new home. Grace tries to give Bonbon the freedom and playtime she needs. Can she also give her friends what they need to get their business off the ground?
