This series is one of my favorites. You will love Goldie Bear the caterer.
Diane Mott Davidson is one of my favorite authors. Her cozy mysteries are fun to read and the cast of characters is diverse. Marla, the “other” ex wife of the “JRK”, John Richard Korman, the abusive doctor who is the bane of Goldie’s life, even now. Because of her son, Arch (totally obnoxious kid – the only thing about these books I don’t like) …
