"Wonderfully warm and witty."
The Family Feud by Carol Finch. In Oz,
Oklahoma Jan Mitchell is frustrated with her parents
separating after three plus decades of marriage. Her dad
wants to go touring while her mom wants her dress shop to
succeed. Hardware storeowner Morgan Price tries to help
Jan negotiate a compromise and peace settlement between her
parents even as he has his own personal agenda to marry
Jan. Carol Finch provides an amusing tale of discordant
relationships that will keep the audience laughing
especially with mom's theory of the male's spot in nature's
food chain. Stop The Wedding! by Jennifer Drew. The hunt
for her wedding dress has so far proven futile for Stacy
Moore. In her fifth store, two thugs kidnap Stacy. Nick
Franklin, accompanying his mother on her wedding dress
quest, tries to intercede, but is knocked out with a six-
pack. Stacy and Nick need to work as a team if they are to
escape from their kidnappers. As they flee, Stacy and Nick
fall in love. Jennifer Drew combines a very humorous
romantic romp that is almost short of impossible into a
wonderful satirical tale that keeps the reader amused with
the antics of the cast. These two irrelevant stories are what Duets is all
about: wild, weird, and wacky, but wonderfully warm and
witty. Harriet Klausner
