In the colorful small town of Cherico, Mississippi, librarian Maura Beth McShay is preparing for an exciting new installment in her own life story -- with some help from the Cherry Cola Book Club.
"With the economy struggling, local shops closed, jobs lost, and a mysterious crime spree, it will take a special meeting of the Cherry Cola Book Club to bring hope and courage to the small town of Cherico, Mississippi, that just might inspire a culprit's confession and conjure a holiday miracle that could save the town--and Christmas"--
Two wonderful new chapters are unfolding for Maura Beth Mayhew, Cherico's librarian. Thanks to her persistence, a new, cutting-edge library is being built on the shores of beautiful Lake Cherico. And come September, Maura Beth will marry Jeremy McShay at his aunt and uncle's stunning home. Yet in life, as in fiction, happy endings are hard-won. A local politician is trying to divert library funds, while Maura Beth's socialite parents insist on a lavish New Orleans wedding. Maura Beth invites them to Cherico to experience the town's laidback appeal--and the book club's delicious potluck fare. Sadly, not even Voncille Nettle's famous biscuits can placate Mrs. Mayhew once the discussion turns from Eudora Welty's The Robber Bridegroom to real-life marriage. To get the wedding and the library of her dreams, Maura Beth will have to harness the indomitable spirit of her favorite Southern heroines--and the sage advice of the Cherry Cola Book Club. --publisher marketing.
