The Chocolate Garden (Dare River book 2)
“Tammy couldn’t help herself from biting into the succulent meat with enjoyment.
Tory had a gift with food, one she’d used to gentle Rye, and to comfort the broken Hollins family when they’d all sat down to dinner together nearly a year ago, their relationships in tatters like towels torn up for rags.
The others at the table couldn’t help but respond to the magic in Tory’s food too, groaning and closing their eyes as they took one bite after another. The men passed the massive china blue platter...s around for seconds. Amelia Ann dished up another heaping of potato salad, and Annabelle and Rory asked if they could have a little more of Tory’s famous baked beans chock full of smoked bacon.
No one said much as they ate, and everything seemed okay for a while. Like nothing was wrong. Like the house hadn’t been invaded in the night.
Tory enlisted everyone to help with the cleanup, likely recognizing that simple chores go a long way toward occupying busy minds. But when the last dish was stowed in the dishwasher, the food’s magic started to wear off.MoreLess
