Lone Star Cafe #2

Former Army brat turned journalist Laura Draper, who sent her friend on assignment in Texas in Texas Cooking [BKL S 15 03], is now there herself to oversee a recently acquired magazine. A true workaholic, the 36-year-old is in denial about her life until she receives a breakup call from her boyfriend and then has a minibreakdown outside the Lone Star Cafe, overwhelmed by her mother's death, her father's depression, and her rapidly ticking biological clock. Inside, elderly twins offer her coffee with a secret ingredient and old-fashioned buttermilk pie, but the real attraction is their nephew, Graham. A former soldier, he is facing demons of his own, but the two do discover joy. But Laura believes that she'd be crazy to give up her fast-track lifestyle for a man she only met a few days ago, even though she has discovered more about herself in this interlude than ever before. Wingate reprises a mythical, healing Texas in her latest novel and offers another stellar story about love and connection.
