"Caramel Kisses" by Cecelia Dowdy

My Thoughts....

This was a delightful read and what I particularly what I liked about the read was that it was of a 'hero [Michael] and heroine [Mimi]who were in their seventies.'  When the heroine died she left something for her husband to take care of.  What Michael learned of this situation about blow his mind and that was finding out that his now dead wife [Mimi] had a daughter in her early teenage years that he knew nothing about that had been adopted.  Would he be able to find Mimi's daughter and give her what had been left from his wife.  Well, all I can say is that Michael, [Mimi's husband] did a wonderful job at finally locating this daughter where he will go to various characters...Lyle, Darla, Cassie, Amy, Belinda to get to the root of this person.  I will say you will have to pick up this good read "Caramel Kisses" to see how this author will bring out this good read to the reader.  In the end Michael Gray will come out of this with not only a new wife, a little one named after him and some great new friends.  Now, how did the name "Caramel Kisses" come out of all of this?  Well,  it seems like Michael's new wife [Darla] was the owner of a bakery and prepared some good sweet candies as his former wife had done! I will say it was nice to have a novel who had a sweet romance in it especially with the main characters being in the 'seventies.'  Would I recommend "Caramel Kisses?"...Yes!
