This is a great read that only took me one day to get through, because I couldn't put it down! Very light and funny, you will love the main character! I cannot wait for the sequel, this is a great new author that I highly recommend!

What a fun book this was - I laughed out loud several times. I could picture each of the characters in my mind and loved each one of them for their quirks. Really hope there is a second book in the works!

In the beginning, I was trying to figure out what was this book about - like was there a story even to be had? Then we got up north and I was seriously beginning to doubt there was a story but I kept on and, just before I was about to put it aside, the story emerged - Selfish husband leaves the family in the lurch for a wealthy woman. Now the story was about Leelee, who was totally out of her comfort zone as a southern lady left, literally, in the cold. As she finds her inner strength and moves forward, the story became interesting and I liked it so- I gave it a B-.

I fell in love with this author's work when I read Rush. This novel is equally well written, fun, poignant and engaging. I couldn't wait to red the sequel, Yankee Doodle Dixie. Lisa Patton's style, her humor about Southerners and ability to create wonderful characters makes all her books page-turners for me. Very entertaining women's fiction.

At first, I wasn't sure I'd get through this book. Was a little too stereotypical: wife will do whatever her husband wants, "stand by my man" type of attitude by main character LeeLee. When her husband decides he wants to quite his comfortable insurance job in Memphis, TN and buy an inn in Vermont, she agrees. She and her two daughters move to the cold, and hostile, environment. Then when their situation changes, she's left to carry on. Comfy read for summer.

Pretty banal and shallow. I didn't bother to finish it.
