The Sugar Queen by Sarah Addison Allen Paperback Book

Description: The Sugar Queen by Sarah Addison Allen A New York Times bestseller and the magical second novel from the author of the enchanting GARDEN SPELLS FORMAT Paperback CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description Twenty-seven-year-old Josey is sure of three things: winter in her North Carolina hometown is her favorite season, shes 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 mothers house, her one consolation is the stockpile of sugary treats and paperback romances she escapes to each night. Until she finds her closet harboring none other than local waitress Della Lee Baker, a tough-talking, tender-hearted woman who is one part nemesis and two parts fairy godmother. Fleeing a life of bad luck and big mistakes, Della Lee has decided Joseys clandestine closet is the safest place to crash. In return shes going to change Joseys life because, clearly, it is not the closet of a happy woman. With Della Lees tough love, Josey is soon forgoing pecan rolls and caramels, tapping into her startlingly keen feminine instincts, and finding her narrow existence quickly expanding. But her life is changing faster than she knows . . . Notes A warm and witty novel of friendship, love and the possibilities of each new day, from the author of Garden Spells, and with similar appeal to The Divine Secrets Of The Ya-Ya Sisterhood. Aimed at the huge audience of women aged 18-55 looking for fiction at the lighter end of the reading group spectrum according to the publisher blurb.
