Looking for a fresh start,
advice columnist Sissy Yoder heads to small-town Yoder, Kansas, to help
in her aunt’s café. But when a milkman is murdered, the newcomer becomes
the prime suspect . . .
After Sissy’s rodeo cowboy
boyfriend turns out to be more of a rodeo clown, she packs a bag; picks
up her Yorkshire terrier Duke; and leaves Tulsa, Oklahoma, bound for
her parents’ former hometown. There are still plenty of Yoders in Yoder,
Kansas, including Sissy’s aunt Bethel, who owns the Sunflower Café but
recently broke her leg. It’s a homecoming of sorts as Sissy arrives to
help in the café and reunite with her pregnant cousin Lizzie. Plus she
can continue to secretly write her newspaper advice column as
seventy-year-old “Aunt Bess.” But it’s Sissy who could use some advice
when she finds the milk deliveryman out behind the café with a knife in
his back. As the sheriff’s prime suspect, it’s up to Sissy to catch the
backstabber herself—before someone else gets creamed.
About The Author
Amy loves nothing more than a good book. Except for her family...and maybe homemade tacos...and nail polish. But reading and writing are definitely high on the list.
Born and bred in Mississippi, Amy is a transplanted Southern Belle who now lives in Oklahoma with her deputy husband, their genius son, two spoiled cats, and one very lazy beagle. Oh, and don't forget the stray kitty that has taken up residence on her front porch. ^..^
When she's not creating quirky characters and happy endings, she's chauffeuring her prodigy to guitar lessons, orchestra concerts and baseball practice. She has a variety of hobbies, but her favorite is whatever gets her out of housework.
Amy also writes contemporary romances under the pen name Amie Louellen.
An award winning author, Amy is a member of RWA and ACFW. She loves to hear from readers. You can find her on Facebook, Instagram, Google+, Twitter, Goodreads, and Pinterest. For links to the various sites, check her website: www.amylillardbooks.com.
My Review
Can you imagine moving to a town the same as your last name? Well, Sissy Yoder does just that, and arrives at a place where a lot of the people whom lived there were also named Yoder. Sissy leaves Tulsa with not many of her things, but is going to help her, actually unknown Aunt, and work in her cafe.
When she is still getting to know her family, and job, the unthinkable happens, she finds a body. The body of the milkman, and now she is a suspect!
With her name in the local sheriff’s list of suspects, she embarks on her own journey to find the killer, and we walk along with her.
I loved her little terrier Duke, and he makes you smile as we journey for answers!
Yes, I first suspected one and then another, but in the end, I was definitely surprised!
Come along on a journey for answers!
I received this book through Net Galley and the Publisher Kensington Books, and was not required to give a positive review.
