And somehow, between work and family, Tubby finds time to sample the highs and lows of idiosyncratic Crescent City cuisine, from trout meunière amandine and French roast coffee with chicory to shrimp po-boys and homemade pecan pralines.

Clean & Wholesome Romance

Kat’s uncomplicated life gets decidedly less so when she discovers the inheritance comes with some hairy conditions: four dogs and five cats that her aunt wanted her to love as her own. Of course, the house smells like a barn–with a touch of antique skunk–and, naturally, has serious roof issues. And that’s before the three-legged cat gets stuck in the wall and the shower goes kablooey.

She’s a self-made city girl…

The last thing I expected out of my life was to be saddled with a watermelon farm deep in the Oklahoma countryside. I’m a city girl, through and through, and my stilettos are not meant for farming.
