Designing Stella ~ Paperback ~ Margaret P Cunningham

SHE KNEW HOW TO GIVE PEOPLE WHAT THEY DIDN T EVEN KNOW THEY WANTED As one of Washington D.C. s most sought-after interior designers, the color has gone out of Stella s life with the death of her beloved mentor and the infidelity of her longtime boyfriend. So she does what any 46-year-old woman on the run from her current life might do she goes home. Back in the South, Stella dives headfirst into a pile of new business ventures and hits the road between New Orleans and Bixoli with her quirky friends. Then there s the thing about a maybe-murder and a voodoo nanny that s enough to spin her head. Too bad Stella s slightly mysterious neighbor Sam Poole doesn t take a shine to her, not at first anyway. (She didn t exactly take a shine to him, either.) But sometimes, in the end, a second chance is in order and just sometimes, that second chance can bring a woman on the run what she didn t know she wanted."
