My, My Sweet Potato Pie by Sonja B.

Sweet, Smooth, and Sinful

Bianca Moore
After going through a bitter divorce that left me broken and angry at the world, I needed a fresh start. On a whim, I took the advice of my best friend, Tangy, and moved to the small country town of Leesbough, where she resides. The townspeople welcome me with their southern hospitality, which I wasn’t used to. I instantly fell in love with my new home and community. The only thing that was a mystery, was my elusive neighbor, Andrew Peterson, who lived down the dirt road from me. Tangy and others warned me not to interact with him because he’s known as the town recluse. However, when that handsome mountain of a man with a scruffy beard and long hair showed up on my doorstep holding a sweet potato pie, all of their warnings went out the window.

Yeah, I’ve been watching my sexy new neighbor since the day she moved in. I’m not a Peeping Tom! When she wears those short shorts and tank tops to tend to her garden, I’d be crazy to look away. I catch her staring in the direction of my place, but she can’t see me as I admire her from afar. I know the folks in town have told her to steer clear of me, and she should. When I caught a glimpse of her crying on her front porch, I wanted to do something to take the tears away. They say the way to a man’s heart is through his stomach, but I say the way to a woman’s, is with my sweet potato pie.
