A sassy, sexy, and smart small-town romp ... with recipes! If you loved Northern Exposure or other quirky small-town stories of community and friendship, you'll love Wishing Rock! After a shattering breakup, Ruby Parker was looking for a new place to call home. She found it in the tiny one-building town called Wishing Rock. If you loved Northern Exposure, Cedar Cove, the Mitford Series, or other small-town stories of community and friendship with a touch of spice, you'll love Wishing Rock! In this first book in the Wishing Rock series (written as emails), readers are introduced to Ruby Parker. Here she is in her own words: Date: Today To: Reader From: Ruby Parker Subject: Wishing Rock Hey, You've been there, right? You're in love, you think the other person is too, you're engaged, even, and then wham! out of left field he goes and breaks it off and it hurts so bad you just want to get away and start fresh? What? You haven't been there? Well, I have. My fianc??? broke off our engagement and decimated my heart, so I moved to this tiny town called Wishing Rock, on Dogwinkle Island. (Once you've met Jake, you'll find out what a dogwinkle is, if you don't know already. It's a funny story, actually. But I'm skipping ahead of myself.) Wishing Rock is different: everyone in the whole town lives in one building. That's right, everyone. All in one building. It's cozy and quaint and everyone knows everyone's business. Including mine. But I fell in love with these people pretty quickly. Maybe you will, too. When you're down, you need people to lift you up. The people of Wishing Rock opened their arms to me and lifted me up. So now, I want to introduce them to you. Come on over to Wishing Rock. And be sure to bring your favorite dish. We're having a potluck, just for you.
