If you enjoyed reading Victoria’s Secret, you
might enjoy the second book in my series:

John Van Wart makes a
painful mistake when he assumes sexy Theresa is the entertainment
for that night's bachelor party. In town to plan her cousin’s
wedding, Theresa has just dumped her cheating, no good, fiancé, and
is in no mood for John's insults. When the whole Italian family
shows up, things really spin out of control. Sparks of anger turn
to lust as John falls under Theresa's spell.

Theresa, manager of
her family's New Jersey Italian restaurants, is in town to organize
her cousin Victoria's wedding, which for her, should be a piece of
cake, but soon the situation proves more complicated. The Buonadies
family arrives from Jersey, bringing abundant amounts of food,
wine, good will, and barely contained chaos.

Theresa's ex-fiancé,
Tony shows up in Pippins Grove looking for his laundered drug
money, closely followed by the FBI agents who suspect Theresa is
involved in Tony’s crimes.

Will her family
purchase John's favorite watering hole, Paulding's Rest, a colonial
tavern, and convert it into an Italian restaurant, complete with
checkered table clothes and candles dripping down Chianti
bottles?

Will the tavern
give up its long buried secrets linked to the treasonous plot of
Benedict Arnold?

Will Theresa's
crooked ex-fiancé and overzealous Federal Agents ruin the
wedding?

Included are several
of the author's favorite recipes.
