Great chick book
The story is a struggle of a battered woman and her attempt at getting a job to be on her own and taking care of her son. Excellent.

Review of "Catering to Nobody"
This is the first book in the Goldy catering series.
Goldy lives in Aspen Meadow Colorado and is a divorced mom of a young boy named Arch. Her birth name is Gertrude Bear and she uses her nick-name of Goldy because she has blond hair. She has a degree in psychology, but hasn?t found a way to pay the bills with it. Since she?s a good cook, she started a catering business.
This book opens with Goldy catering at a wake for a deceased teacher - one of her son?s in fact. During the meal, someone is poisoned and Goldy is a suspect. Unfortunately her business has been shut down, and so she is catering to nobody.
I enjoyed this book but thought the characters were all pretty intense. I suppose that is quite realistic given all that has happened to Goldy and her son. I also enjoyed the banter between Goldy and police detective Tom Shultz, who has taken a personal interest in Goldy.
