β€œWhy won’t you just tell me what’s in that cake?” I’d been trying to get Laine’s recipe for years. We all had.

When all else fails, turn to the divine taste of hummingbird cake.

In the South you always say β€œyes, ma’am” and β€œno, ma’am.” You know everybody’s business. Football is a lifestyle not a pastime. Foodβ€”especially dessertβ€”is almost a religious experience. And you protect your friends as fiercely as you protect your familyβ€”even if the threat is something you cannot see.

In this spot-on Southern novel brimming with wit and authenticity, you’ll laugh alongside lifelong friends, navigate the sometimes rocky path of marriage, and roll through the outrageous curveballs that life sometimes throws . . . from devastating pain to absolute joy. And if you’re lucky, you just may discover the secret to hummingbird cake along the way.
