27-year-old Josey is sure of three things: winter in her North Carolina hometown is her favourite season, she’s a sorry excuse for a Southern belle, and sweets are best eaten in the privacy of her hidden closet. For while Josey has settled into an uneventful life in her mother’s house, her one consolation is the stockpile of sugary treats and paperback romances she escapes to each night... Until she finds it harbouring none other than local waitress Della Lee Baker, a tough-talking, tenderhearted woman who is one part nemesis - and two parts fairy godmother... Brimming with warmth, wit, and a sprinkling of magic, this is a spellbinding tale of friendship, love - and the enchanting possibilities of every new day.
