A LIFE FILLED WITH RICHES The riches that mean most to Teresa “Toots” Loudenberry are the loving friends and family she’s accumulated over the course of a life well lived. And now that her daughter, Abby, has married her beau Chris and settled down near Toots in Charleston, life is even more satisfying than the delicious pralines sold at Toots’s bakery, The Sweetest Thing. Abby isn’t the only …
Abby isn’t the only one enjoying a little romance. Toots’s friendship with Dr. Phil Becker has grown unexpectedly close . . . and that brings both joy and complications. As a distraction, Toots throws herself into helping Abby and Chris open an animal rescue shelter on their estate. But life takes a serious turn when two young children disappear after visiting The Sweetest Thing. Toots immediately enlists Ida, Sophie, and Mavis to help in the search. As they draw closer to the culprits, they realize the stakes are much higher than they ever could have imagined . . .

I’d give it a 3.5-4.0 I’m 79 and somehow the romance among 70 somethings didn’t seem too realistic. But it was nice reading.
Did
not like book
Just not into the psychic genre.
This is not one of her best. Plus, there was too much dialogue and not enough actual story. I kept fast forwarding, trying to find good parts.
Entertaining, humorous, heartwarming fun!
My thoughts, not realistic, slow reading. I had a hard time getting through it because it wasn”t beleivable.
Way too much foul language and sex. I found it offensive, and did not read more than the first chapter.
