A touching novel full of Southern comfort for fans of Joshilyn
Jackson and Fannie Flagg.
Dell Haley's mama always said there were two things a man couldn't
get enough of: good cookin' and good lovin'. Well, Dell knows she's
got the cookin' down pat, but her husband is getting more than his
fair share of lovin'-in another woman's bed. And when he dies
there, Dell's predictable life comes to a screeching halt. Short on
money and education, Dell turns to the one thing that has never let
her down: her cooking. For the first time in her life, Dell takes a
huge risk and opens a restaurant in a derelict diner on the west
end of town. The cafe gradually becomes a gathering place for a
motley crew of people who become Dell's family. And yet, even as
her life becomes more solid, Dell is plagued by the memory of her
husband's betrayal-but the answers she seeks may have a higher
price than she's willing to pay.
