*CBA Reviews "A delightful, heartwarming, and heart wrenching story that captures the beauty and essence of living in a small, southern town. And if you're lucky, you just may discover the secret to hummingbird cake along the way.
Through it all, you'll experience the essence and the joy of true friendship.

In this spot-on Southern novel brimming with wit and authenticity, Laine, Carrigan, Ella Rae first met on the playground when they were five years old. And you protect your friends as fiercely as you protect your family- even if the threat is something you cannot see.
Food-especially dessert- is almost a religious experience. Its humor, poignancy, and a dash of sass will touch the heart."* In the South you always say "yes, ma'am" and "no, ma'am." You know everybody's business. "The Secret to Hummingbird Cake celebrates strong women and stronger ties.
