Praise and Reviews

Having lived in New Orleans for 5 years and visited many of the hot spots Jody describes in this setting, I loved every single minute of this book. Couldn’t put it down. Especially the Mardi Gras scene where Culler hangs out in a hotel room with a Bourbon Street balcony - been there! And the way Jody described some of the scenes really took me back to my days there. The characters really came to life for me. - Kimberly Stuckenbrock “NOLA book lover”
