If You Like Mary Kay Andrews

Mary Kay Andrews writes fun and breezy stories that take place in the South. While some of her novels are cozy mysteries (originally published under Kathy Hogan Trocheck), the highlights of Andrews' character-driven novels are her charming and humorous portraits of Southern life. Andrews has a knack for creating strong, intelligent, and likeable female characters, who rebound from adversity by pursuing unlikely romances, untangling manipulative schemes, and forming meaningful friendships.
