Forty-year-old Kate Landry's carefully planned life has become as messy as the powdered sugar on her famous beignets. Juggling the responsibilities of running her café, raising her teenage niece, and the emotional baggage from her breakup, Kate finds her world once again turned upside down when her first-ever crush, Micah Guidry, returns to town as the hunky local librarian.
As Kate struggles to implement her plans to expand her café amid the New Orleans Mardi Gras madness and the meddling of her conniving ex-fiancé, Micah becomes the unwitting hero of her misadventures, stirring up feelings she thought she'd long buried. How can falling in love in the Big Easy be this hard?

Book Excerpt
A cool mid-February breeze traipsed through, rustling the leaves of the ancient live oak canopying the outdoor space. I cinched my coral cardigan, covering the matching sleeveless sweater beneath. A dark gray pencil skirt and black heels completed my professional appearance. I reached Penny, a college student who’d started as a hostess years ago, moved on to waitress, and now additionally acted as my right hand during special events like this one.
“I need to fetch Hayley from the library.” I adjusted my hold on my purse. “Can you keep an eye on things until I return?”
Penny, with her thick brown hair pulled into a sleek ponytail, cast a wary glance at the temperamental bride. “Of course. All that’s left is the second line?”
“Yes.”
As if on cue, the trumpeter from the live band moved forward, playing a loud, high call to the guests. Everyone stopped in their tracks, responding with the customary shout of “Hey!” The rest of the jazz band joined in, continuing the festive melody of Joe Avery’s “Second Line.” The bride and groom were handed umbrellas decorated with tassels and sequins. They danced and walked, jutting the parasols above their heads. Guests grabbed napkins, waving them as they followed the couple in what I described to out-of-towners as an untamed version of a conga line.
“I’ve got it covered, Boss.” Penny gave a mock salute.
“Thanks.” I hurried through the side gate and into my bright blue Honda Civic (Consumer Reports top safety pick). At five in the evening, the sun barely clung to the sky. I pulled from the driveway and whispered a prayer for God to carry me through the rest of the day. A wedding was one thing. A bridezilla another. But a wedding with a bridezilla in the climax of Mardi Gras season?
