BLURB: At thirty, Nora Kehoe is feeling pressured to settle down.
On a blind date, Nora unexpectedly ends up in the emergency room where she
meets Dr. John Blessing. She hopes the pragmatic Dr. Blessing can make her life
complete. Then, a passionate encounter with a childhood friend changes everything.
The charismatic Jean Marc Gaspard manages the family business, Gaspard
Fisheries. But rumors abound that Jean Marc is running more than seafood
through the waters around Manchaca, Louisiana. When a family crisis sends Nora
to Manchaca, she is thrown headlong into the dangerous world of smugglers and
swindlers. And as Jean Marc tries to protect Nora from his past, he realizes he
may lose her because of it. The dark bayou waters run deep with secrets in
Louisiana, and every Cajun knows how to dance the fine line between the right
and wrong side of the law. But for strangers, learning the steps to staying
alive in the swamps can be tricky. Life, and love, will be dependent on how
well one can master the … Acadian Waltz
Kimberley's Review....
Wonderful, Clever, sassy, sharp,
brilliant and resourceful. Those are just some of the words that come to mind
when I was reading Acadian Waltz. Set in today’s New Orleans we start off with
Nora T ( as most of her friends call her) and her Sunday brunch with her over
bearing mother Claire and her sweet , keep your mouth shut stepfather Lou. After hearing what her mother expects from her
and telling her she isn't holding her side up of the deal. You know the deal
most mothers’ want …. Their daughter married, rich, and given her grandbabies
Nora is thrown into the world of speed dating southern style. But a freak
allergic reaction, from shellfish sends Nora’s date to the hospital, and Nora
into the arms of Dr. John Blessing. Suddenly she is now on the fast track to
the altar via her mother.
But in comes the childhood crush ,
Jean Marc (sighs) and he is there to show Nora T what she is really looking for
isn’t in the big city of New Orleans but in the back woods , swamps of Louisiana.
I found this book funny, sweet, and
gripping. I enjoy Ms. Weis strength she gave Nora, and giving it to Nora when
the time she needed it the most. The mix of who, what, when and how and OH no
he didn’t had me staying up all night to finish reading it. I can’t wait to
read more from Ms. Weis and I am hoping to make it back to the swamps of Louisiana
in her future books.
