Josephina "Joie" Harrington just blew her future with her
fiancée, in front
of everyone at the tarmac, where the private jet was due
to depart for Paris.
And all she wanted to do was get the sizzle back. She has
spent her time
orchestrating a Manhattan social front to ensure that
Wilson's career-making
moment went off without a hitch. Now after she and her
little pink lace
panties have embarrassed him, he has dumped her, deciding
to do it now
rather than after they were in Paris where her parents
were there for support
as planned. Crushed, this little socialite takes a detour
and heads for Sugar,
Georgia where she has inherited an historical piece of
property from her
deceased Aunt Letty, the only person who truly understood
her and promised
her she'd find her wings some day and fly.
PGA Masters golfer Brett McGraw is Sugar's hero. His
brothers Cal and Jace
are also loved by all, possessing a special admiration in
the community,
especially sexually for all the women. Caught with his
derriere captured in
print along with a naked heiress, it's time to down play
his popularity and
head home to keep low for a couple of months until the
FedEx Cup.
All hell
breaks loose when Brett is again acquainted with his
childhood friend Josie
and his feisty grandma Hattie, who raised the McGraw boys
after their parents'
deaths, and her co-horts get involved. Never able to keep
their noses out of
everybody's business, the gun totting and extremely pushy
Sunday School
Mafia (Sugar ladies Baptist Choir) uses their devious
wiles to attempt driving
Joie from renovating the Fairchild House and restoring her
childhood dreams
in honor of her Aunt.
The community is all competing to raise the most
money for a new children's wing at the local hospital and
Joie tries to help.
However, Joie will not get involved with a famous
womanizer and this
womanizer changes his stripes as he gets totally involved
with the child-
turned-adult. Two people desiring different views of life
just isn't going to
work and Joie stands to lose her dream when she learns of
Brett's deception
for this balls-to-the-wall girl who can't trust a man that
doesn't believe in
her.
This Sugar, Georgia novel is a fascinating
read. Once I picked up SUGAR'S TWICE AS SWEET
I was hooked! Joie creates more havoc than a clown and is
such a beautiful
and caring woman. I loved the escapades she innocently
finds herself in at
every turn. . Believe me, this will keep your mind
working to keep up with all
the mishaps this girl can get into.
SUGAR'S TWICE AS SWEET is the first in this series. .
