Gimme Some Sugar
Gimme Some Sugar | Molly Harper
16 posts | 13 read | 11 to read
A young widow returns to Lake Sackett, Georgia to face the ghosts of her pastand decide if shes ready to take another chance on lovein the third sparkling Southern Eclectic novel that goes down as easy as honey on a deep-fried Twinkie (Library Journal, on Sweet Tea and Sympathy). Lucy Brewer would never have guessed that her best friend, Duffy McCready (of McCreadys Bait Shop & Funeral Home) has been in love with her since they were kids. Fear of rejection and his own romantic complications prevented Duffy from confessing his true feelings in high school, so he stood by and watched her wed Wayne Bowman right after high school. Wayne had always been a cheapskate, so it comes as no surprise when he suffers a fatal accident while fixing his own truck. Even as her family and friends invade Lucys life and insist that the new widow is too fragile to do much beyond weeping, Lucy is ashamed to admit that life without Wayne is easier, less complicated. After all, no one knew what a relentless, soul-grinding trudge marriage to Wayne had been. Only Duffy can tell shes hiding something. In need of a fresh start, Lucy asks Duffy to put his cabinet-building skills to use, transforming the town's meat shop into a bake shop. As the bakery takes shape, Lucy and Duffy discover the spark that pulled them together so many years ago. Could this finally be the second chance hes always hoped for? Once again Molly Harper writes characters you cant help but fall in love with (RT Book Reviews) in this charming and entertaining love story.

#MagicalMay #FoodInCovers

I can do books with food on the cover for days! I narrowed it down once to fiction titles, then went down to the food being sweet, then narrowed them down again to some kind of baked goods & after that, finally, I thinned it down to a dozen titles to fit into the grid. Whew! Now I want to eat something sweet! 😋🎂🧁🍮🍰😆

Schnoebs Love food books 🙌🙌🙌🙌 4y

Loved this one! It was a bittersweet read though because I hate to say goodbye to this series.

When newly widowed Lucy moves back to her hometown in Georgia she just wants to keep her head down and take care of her son. Small town life turns out to be more than she bargained for as she learns to renavigate being surrounded by former friends and current foes (also known as the in-laws).

Still #audiosouping along to this one as I am trying to savor it. Enjoying Duffy & Lucy's story & all of the Lake Sackett & McCready family fun. Today's soup is Yotam Ottolenghi's Sweet Corn Chowder with Spiced Butter. Chowders always have a perfect summer vibe to me. Finished soup pic coming later. 🍲😋

Catsandbooks Looks tasty! 5y

Aww my sweet Duffy. It's about time he gets his act together. I am enjoying spending time with these character almost as much as I enjoy spending time in Half Moon Hollow (which by the way I Iove Half Moon Hollow and all of the people there).

This author has yet to disappoint me. Once again I was given a humorous story full of heart that had me staying up WAY TOO LATE to finish it.

#Audiocooking & #audiosouping to this one (the newest in the Southern Eclectic series). I needed something light & funny as I do a bit of kitchen magic. I'm making a vegan version of Rick Bayless's Quick Pozole with jackfruit subbing in for the cooked shredded chicken. Drained, rinsed well, shredded, sautéed in taco seasoning & added to the soup pot with the hominy, broth & enchilada sauce. Finished soup picks coming later. ??

TheBookgeekFrau I love the Southern Eclectic series; so much fun! 5y
ValerieAndBooks I still have to try cooking with jackfruit!! 5y
DebinHawaii @C.Perone They are fun! 😆I find I really enjoy the audiobooks. 5y
DebinHawaii @ValerieAndBooks It's pretty easy to work with. I have used it a few times now. 👍 5y
