About The Author
Tom Oswald grew up in Naples, FL. He has been known, on more than one occasion, to divest himself of all worldly possessions and take off on some harebrained adventure, like sailing in a small boat all by himself all around the Gulf of Mexico or wandering nomadically around the US for a year, looking for interesting places to ride his bike. In the process of researching this book, he spent months searching for the finest riding in all corners of the state, logging thousands of miles on a bicycle he made by hand.

Book Description

Restaurant consultant par excellence and confirmed romantic Mimi Louis has already launched some of Philly's hottest high-end eateries, while transforming her boyfriend Nick into a sought-after celebrity chef. And what thanks does she get for her efforts? She finds the cad cavorting with another wom an! Heartbroken -- her cherished belief in One True Soulmate suddenly in the trash with last night's leftovers -- the betrayed "Restaurant Diva" takes drastic action: she starts over.

Returning home to New Jersey, Mimi sets her sights on rescuing the now-failing family business, Café Louis, determined to forget about love, sex, and all that other nonsense. Unfortunately, there's a menu full of tasty, available men right across the counter. Maybe her romantic hunger strike isn't the answer. Maybe it's time Mimi began selecting her men the way she picks pastries and produce, by sampling all the best before choosing a main dish.

Because life, after all, should be a banquet . . .



About The Author
Melissa Jacobs ran her own successful public relations company for five years, then fired herself. "I learned that money could buy shoes, but not happiness." She said good-bye to Philadelphia, embraced her inner Jersey girl, and is now pursuing her dream of being a novelist.
