Book
Blurb:
Louisiana Chef Leona Buquet agrees to cook
for CG Fleming Jr, movie producer at his mountain lodge in the Colorado
Mountains during the Christmas holiday.
When Leona meets handsome Cameron, CG's
son, she is taken by his striking good looks and warm personality, but with the
glamorous actress, Marissa Madison, clamoring for his attention will he even
notice Leona?
Cameron struggles with being in a career he
hates only to please his father. When he meets Leona he feels he's known her
all his life. He wants an opportunity to get to know her, but she keeps
avoiding him. When they become stranded in a hunter's cabin, will she lower her
guard and open her heart to Cameron?
How we celebrate Christmas?
Because we live
so far away from family and in high elevation (6500’) travel is not always an
option for us. We we do travel, we either visit my family in Louisiana or my
husband’s family in Kansas. When we visit my family, we meet at my mom’s house
with my brother and his wife and my sister and niece. My mom starts cooking at
about 8:00 am. Her table is filled with many Cajun dishes. Usually a chicken
and sausage gumbo or pork stew, duck, ham, potato salad, green beans (or some
other type of vegetable) and whatever else she decides to cook! There’s usually
two or three desserts as well. We open presents before Christmas dinner then
enjoy the feast then everyone pitches in to clean up. Afterward we visit.
