I am a retired chef who still loves to cook and a Book Reviewer. I am very prolific reader since my early “tweens” when my big brother introduced me to Little Women.

Though my preferences usually run to historical and contemporary romance, I read across the board from cookbooks to all manner of fiction.

I am always excited...more »

    Francis Ray says

    Widow Traci Evans sits in on meetings with the lovely ladies of the Invincible Sisterhood because for a little while she can feel as if she belongs. The members are all sweet older women who have lost their husbands, but not their passion for life. However, unlike the other women in the Sisterhood, Traci's husband died while cheating on her. Full-figured, sassy and successful, Traci has no intention of letting a man make a fool of her again, not even if he begged - but that was before a playful kiss turned hot and irresistible. Maureen, Traci's next door neighbor and best friend, organized the Invincible Sisterhood after losing her husband. Unlike Traci, Maureen misses the intimacy, the connection with a man. She thinks she might have found a perfect candidate - until she learns he is ten years younger and she starts having hot flashes.

    I have recently come across another book lover - tina2 - she is from your neck of the woods (Pacific Northwest)

    Check out her book shelf – many of her books are very comparable to our choices.

    Thanks so much for the invite. You have a great bunch of books on your shelf. Have to admit my husband is the chef in our family--but I boil a mean pot of water.

    Thanks for the friend invite! I love your sign-in ID! I see you are a Carolyn Davidson and Cheryl St. John fan--smart lady! Have you tried Pam Crooks or Kate Bridges? Kate's "westerns" are set in her native Canada and usually involve Mounties, which is a nice twist.
    I was thrilled to see some of my books on your shelf, too, thanks so much! I agree, great food and great books are a winning combination.

    Oh, by the way. I have a friend who loves Paula Dean's recipes. She got new pots and pans last Christmas (and a new house) and she must have tried every recipe in the the book. LOL.
