Janie's heart's desire is about to open her own store, but that could be thwarted when her old love is back in town, running the competition's business.
Funny, sweet, and quirky, Vicki Batman’s stories are full of her hallmark humor, romance, and will delight all readers. She has sold many award-winning and bestselling romantic comedy works to magazines and most recently, three humorous romantic mysteries. An avid Jazzerciser. Handbag lover. Mahjong player. Yoga practitioner. Movie fan. Book devourer. Cat fancier. Best Mom ever. And adores Handsome Hubby.
What's in STORE for Janie McNiel when she and her childhood friend, Tracey, decide to open their own store TWINKLE TOES? That's scary enough...BUT add into the mix they're opening it in the very same Historic District where the former Love of Her Life...that detestable snake in the grass...has returned from NY City, is helping his mom run HER competition store, and worse, he's a mucky-muck she must work with because HE'S a ranking member of the Historic District's committee?
She'll crush him! Her store will make him turn belly up and weep for mercy. Maybe then he'll pay for all the years of...pain...he caused her back when she was a gullible, head-over-heels-in-love-with-the-snake-fool!
Vicki Batman is a brilliant maestro of short story orchestration.
This is my 4th Vicki Batman read and review, and each one is so well written it's a surprise for me when I reach the end. It seems like I've just been entwined in a full length novel with all the detail and richness such stories allow, not a coyly crafted short delight.
Short story telling is the toughest genré for ANY author to write, and not many can accomplish it with the panache Ms. Batman does.
Another WELL-DONE story and FIVE STARS for STORE WARS.
Ms. Batman you are rapidly building a firm fan base...with me at the front of the pack.
This is a charming little story with a setting I identified so much with that I could feel like I was there. I only wish the story had been longer. I wanted to know these people better.
