That Texas State of Mind — Carolyn Brown

Welcome to Sinful Delights -- the bake shop where the cupcakes are almost as delicious as the four women who run the place. Like Muff -- she's forty and not a bit interested in settling down with one man...what a waste of good cowboys that would be! Muff's twin, Cookie, is trying not to listen to her biological clock that's ticking away like a time bomb. Their college friend Trixie is into scrapbooking and Jack Daniels...and not necessarily in that order. Then there's Darla Jean, a hooker turned preacher who delivers her sermons with gusto and fiercely loves her friends.

In the end, calories, tornadoes, wars, and fat cells may come and go, but girlfriends are forever.
