Mardi Gras brings two people together in a celebration of hope and healing in this heartwarming novel from the author whose "books are like reading a hug" (Long and Short Reviews).
Dr. Mark Clayborn never wanted to return to Alabama, but his father's recent ill health has him back and facing his demons. Yet from the darkness shines a beacon of light: Laura Jo Akins—and he's hoping she tastes as sweet as he imagines her to be.
For so long Laura Jo's only focus has been her daughter, but despite her reluctance, gorgeous Mark incites feelings she'd thought herself immune to . . . Could Laura Jo be the one to give Mark the courage to stay—and discover the love he deserves?
"Susan Carlisle's romances always have a strong emotional connection in them and this was no different . . . a journey of healing and loving again filled with emotions." —Harlequin Junkie
