Nora Finch has a sweet life. She’s married to one of San
Francisco’s wealthiest venture capitalists, she lives in a gorgeous old
Victorian mansion in one of the city’s most sought-after neighborhoods, and she
just launched an ice cream business with her two best friends, Cricket and
Lindsay.
However…exactly one week after Sweet Dreams opens its doors to the public, Nora’s husband, Kenneth, informs her he wants a divorce.
Talk about bad timing. Now, on top of the tremendous pressure she feels to drive sales, Nora has to deal with the breakdown of her marriage, adjust to a more frugal lifestyle, find a new place to live and prepare to dip her toes in the dating pool for the first time in four years. If that weren’t enough, everyone keeps trying to get her to “process” her feelings. For an overachiever like Nora, juggling the demands of a new business along with a total overhaul of her personal life should be doable…right?

My Thoughts…
While this is a story of a woman following her dreams , I
enjoyed the friendships in this book even more. The three women, who have been friends
forever, follow their dreams together and open an ice cream shop, Sweet
Dreams. These women work hard together
to make the shop successful, play hard together, and love each other to the
ends of the earth. Their friendship
is the type that people on the outside look at and think that they wish they
had friends like this. These ladies
protect each other, call each other out on issues, and love each other.
Sundaes with Nora is a continuation of Sugar Spun Sister,
the first book in the Sweet Dreams series.
Cricket’s story is book one, Nora’s is book two, and Lindsay’s will
follow in book three. It is fun to see
these three best friends suceed in their dreams and lives. I enjoyed that this is a clean story. Ther e is love, fun, and attractions, but it
does not have to lead to falling into bed.
These are women with morals and belief in themselves. They do not need a man to help them succeed.
I have always read Anna Garner’s books when they come
available. They are fun, easy , and
usually one sitting reads. I recommend
checking out all her books, especially the Sweet Dreams series.
