Chaos ensues as these two girls set things right.

“Mariah, what are you doing?”
Nathan’s voice startled her, making her almost lose her grip on the ladder. “I’m…fixing…this valve.”
“Don’t do that!” He grabbed the ladder, making it wobble. Then she did lose her grip, and suddenly she plopped into a pool of red jelly.
“Are you okay?” He looked down at her.
“I’m fine. Sticky, but fine.”
“Give me your hand and I’ll get you out.”
She reached up to grasp his hand, but the jelly made her hand slip out of his and pulled him partially over the edge of the drum.
Hmm. Not a bad idea. This could be fun.
She reached up, looking innocent. “Let’s try again. Lean over and give me both hands.” Mariah gripped his hands, and levered as hard as she could….
Nathan teetered for a second, then slid down and thumped into the gelatinous pool.
“Come on in, the jelly’s fine.” She laughed and met his gaze. But instead of seeing anger there, she saw attraction, heat…desire.
A sexy smile spread across his face. “So, Mariah, you up for some jelly wrestling?”
Dear Reader,
Exploring the theme of these two comedies—bad girls go home—was both fun and emotionally satisfying for me. Rebellion and conformity, success and self-acceptance, and the importance of friendship are threads that run through both stories.
Mariah and Nikki go for it—heading off to live authentic lives. Two girls against the world. Of course, no one is truly “free to be” in life, and both girls have regrets and doubts. As their stories unfold and they fall in love, they both see themselves with new pride and self-acceptance.
Wedding for One is a story about the one who got away. It’s heartbreaking when Mr. Right slips through our fingers. That’s why it was such a delight to help Nathan and Mariah fall in love all over again eight years after their disastrous almost-wedding.
The operation of Cactus Confections is based on information I obtained from two Arizona-based candy companies—Ceretta’s Chocolate Factory in Glendale and Cheri’s in Tucson, which produces prickly pear cactus candies, jellies and even a prickly pear margarita mix like the one Mariah dreams up and her father invents.
I hope you enjoy Mariah’s and Nikki’s stories.
