Twisted Creek
A peek inside!
Bad luck's been biting at Allie Daniels's heels all her life, so when she inherits a tiny cafe in a small Texas community she's sure there's a catch. But Allie brings her grandmother along, and the cafe gives Nana a chance to do what she does best - cook. As the pair settle in to make the best of what surely must be a mistake in an old man's will, the people of the town drop by. Lonely folk discover there's always a "table for one" available, with down-home food to warm the soul. An old maid, a shy young man, and a drifter, slowly become the family Allie never had. When trouble comes, Allie finds she's not alone anymore -- and that, sometimes, the only cure for bad luck is the courage to love.

Reviews
TWISTED CREEK is a wonderful, character-driven tale that tells just what a family can be, even if it's made up of a bunch of lonely friends. ... Romance blossoms slowly, but for two nearly lost souls, it's rewarding when it does. ...As usual, Jodi Thomas kept me up way later than normal! TWISTED CREEK could be anywhere, but Ms. Thomas makes it uniquely Texan with her wonderful characters and great dialogue. This is another thought-provoking novel to add to your Jodi Thomas collection. Jani Brooks
...Romantic suspense and sweet women's fiction are an unlikely combination, but in TWISTED CREEK, veteran storyteller Jodi Thomas makes the pairing work quite well. Allie's love for her aging grandmother is sensitively portrayed, while her blossoming relationship with Luke simmers unforgettably in the background. This is a moving story about overcoming hardship and bitterness and about being brave enough to make a happy ending – no matter how long it takes. Romance Junkies Reviewer: Lynn Reynolds
"...Thomas sketches a slow, sweet surrender, keeping
the tension building to a rewarding resolution in this unsentimental,
homespun romance."
