I knew I’d let myself go, but I never realized how far until I caught a glimpse of my reflection in the self-checkout camera at Dollar General. It shouldn’t come as too much of a shock, considering I’m a school bus driver with four kids and a van with a back door that only shuts downhill. But the quality of this camera can’t be all that good, right? Regardless, my looks are the least of my worries. I’m too busy keeping up with kids, trying to make ends meet, and doing all I can to avoid the Big D. Not divorce, that happened years ago. Diabetes. Which my doctor said will happen if I don’t somehow make time to whip my butt into better shape. As luck would have it, I run into a hot slightly older man who offers me a job at his new gym. A handsome stranger wants to pay me money and benefits while offering me health and fitness advice . . . Either I’m being Punk’d or maybe there is such a thing as fairytale endings for hot mess single mamas. This sweet-heat-level small town, romantic comedy is the third in a new series set in the fictitious Apple Cart County, Alabama. Hart of Dixie meets Sweet Magnolias as friends navigate raising kids among busy lives and nosy neighbors.
