More Than a Trifle

How to cope when life throws darts…

Cassie Johanson thinks supportive friends and a dessert to ease the pain will do the job. But when the husband who deserted her to follow Lady Luck still manages to put her finances, her home, and her family in jeopardy, she needs more than a good dessert.

Chocolate chip cookies and a lakeside chat with friend produce a plan…

Get revenge. Get him out of her life for good. Rebuild her finances.

That's her plan. Everyone is behind her one hundred percent. But shucking the man she's loved since her teen years isn't easy. Will her sale of most of what they built in a marriage be enough to sever the ties that bind? Will taking on a new project be a godsend or a disaster? Worse, will the man who caused all these problems return?

For Cassie, life is more meatloaf than trifle…

More Than A Trifle is the second book in the Dessert Dames series. Set in a small town on the Wisconsin lakeshore of Lake Michigan, it further develops the themes of family, friendship, and real everyday problems and joys. When a life crisis arises, wise women—and Cassie is one—know the value of resolving and growing from it. When she falters, she’s always got a friend to have her back push her forward on life's track.
