Gumbeaux Love: Book 2 of the Gumbeaux Sistahs novels

The Gumbeaux Sistahs #2

by Jax Frey

The adventures of the Gumbeaux Sistahs continues. Five, fiery southern women wage wars against their unique problems using their improbable friendships, hilarious evil-genius schemes, strategy sessions with oh-so-many cocktails, and a shared passion for good gumbo.

Single, Southern artist, Judith Lafferty, casually confesses to her Gumbeaux Sistahs that she is occasionally lonely and would like to fall in love again. Seriously - you'd think she would know to keep her mouth shut around these women by now. The sistahs tackle her problem along with their own with their usual unreasonable, extreme plots and schemes, including a kidnapping, a cupid costume, trying out pick-up lines at the cheese counter, and blind dates from hell. In helping out their friend, the sistahs help each other out as well and bring to light the many flavors of love in all of our lives. Be ready for twists, turns, laugh-out-loud times, and heart-wrenching moments. You'll be sure to recognize yourself and your best friends in the unstoppable sistahs.

I so enjoyed my return to Covington, Louisiana in this endearing sequel to The Gumbeaux Sistahs! I felt like I was reunited with old friends, and couldn't wait to find out how they were all doing! These five women--Judith, Bea, Helen, Dawn and Lola--are wonderfully brought to life in this laugh-out-loud, heartwarming book. The friendships of these woman feel genuine, with the kind of bond we all yearn for. They scheme, they plot, they laugh, they share gumbo and cocktails, but most of all, they are able to lean on each other, knowing that they are walking through this crazy life together!

I have to admit, I wasn't sure what I was getting into here. I was giggling all through this book. Furthermore, I haven't read book one yet, but I definitely plan to! If you like strong, sassy women, romantic comedy-esque situations, you're going to fall in love with this book. The sistahs are absolutely brilliant, and are a tight-knit group I'd love to meet up for drinks with one night. Highly recommend.

Gumbeaux Love

Was good to see that the sistahs are always looking for new ways not only to grow themselves but to try new ways to help others. I was especially happy to see how Helen added Cooper into her life and provided a safe life.
