The Savannah House - Paperback

by Jamie O'Connor (Author)

Going home is never easy. Gennie left her home in southern Georgia for cooking school in New York as soon as the ink was dry on her high school diploma, and she never looked back. Eight years later, she is returning with Ari, the star of her cooking class and the love of her life, but despite her professional and romantic successes, she's no better at fitting in and being happy at home than she was as a teen. Between a mother who never understood her and a sister who never understood why flirting with her boyfriend might be weird, Gennie is in for a long vacation. This is a story about southern women, about what it's like to be the quiet one, and about really understanding what it is you want out of life. Mostly, though, this is a story about food.
