Book Description:
Dana Sue might run the best little restaurant in Serenity, but when you're feeding a small town of neighbors, busybodies and best friends, things can get a bit hot in the kitchen. Never mind that she's putting on too many pounds (an occupational hazard for a chef) she's worried about her too-skinny teenage daughter, Annie, who has been slowly starving herself since the loud, suitcase-tossing, name-calling fit on her front lawn that left Dana Sue minus one cheating husband.
But sometimes life picks strange ways to mend fences. When Annie lands in the hospital, Dana Sue reaches out to the man she loves to hate: Ron, the husband who took her heart when she tossed him out. Ron is still Annie's white knight, even if he's decidedly more tarnished in Dana Sue's eyes. But he still looks good enough to eat, and maybe, just maybe, to forgive. Once, Ron made the mistake of letting go without a proper fight. But now Dana Sue is about to get another taste of sweet devotion from a man tired of feeling like a fool, hungry for that slice of heaven he found with her.

Cathy J. (This is the second book in Sherryl Woods' trilogy, The Sweet Magnolias. This book focuses on Dana Sue trying to handle a full time job of running a business; a daughter who becomes dangerously anorexic; and ex-husband who wants to be back in Dana Sue's life; and Dana Sue's own health issues. It's light reading and just an enjoyable read.
This is the second book in the Sweet Magnolia's trilogy. Dana Sue is going through several crisis, one with her own health, one with her marriage-which is basically over, and the biggest is with the health of her teenage daughter. There to help her are her two best friends, Maddie and Helen. The friendship of these women is central to this series, and is what makes it so special. Dana Sue has to look inside herself to see what it is she really wants and needs, and that's when her life starts getting back together!
Fantastic sequel! I felt so bad for Dana Sue and Annie. I was almost crying in spots. Sherryl Woods really knew how to make you feel the characters. I am almost going to hate to read the last one in this trilogy. They have all been so great!

This was a great romance novel and it made me go right in and order the first one (yeah I read it out of order) and the third one in the series.
This second book on the Sweet Magnolias series is also very good. I like that the characters are not perfect people emotionaly or physically. Some real problems are tackled in this story, infidelity, forgiveness, eating disorders among others.
